That is a beautiful coin! The 3's this year... they got pretty messed up. This one is known as the "ugly 3" [ATTACH]
Remember, you have to vote in the poll for your guess to count!
I think this is a fake. It is a well done fake, and thus it is fooling a lot of members here, but it is fake. Besides the die chips that Hoky77...
Possibly, but they don't have the appearance of die breaks. A die is going to break usually in a continuous line - not a whole bunch of chipped...
Do you have the "Guide Book of Red Book Guide Books"? It's a book about collecting the red books, and was written by a member here on this...
I'm a huge fan of Fugios, although I haven't gotten one myself yet. It is high on my want list!
I'll second the Bust Half suggestion. You have a wide range of prices listed - $500 to $1500. For $500, I'd absolutely go for a nice, dark, EF,...

Likely PCGS grade: MS-67. The luster appears quite strong, and the eye appeal is obviously quite attractive. There is some planchet roughness on...
It's too bad, then, that their entire IT staff seems to be negligently incompetent.
I know, based on forum posts at NGC, that their website has been experiencing issues. I'd also wager a guess, this is probably a very busy time...
Eh, not really as a general trend. It's entirely possible that an isolated coin might move up or down a point on any resubmission. Don't pay a...
You don't know John very well, but I do - he absolutely would not buy a slider that got graded MS. That's one thing he absolutely hates. I will...
