im not sure either. maybe look for a web site for it. my guesstamate is a far 6

[Conder101]

Looks like a near 6. The differece is the distance from the point of the 6 to the leaf. On the far 6 you could fit the upright of the 1 between the point and the leaf.

According to the picture in the Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Coins, Conder101 is correct.
