Greetings from Canada,
Some sites say there is a wide 3 variety, but none I can find illustrate it. I would be grateful for a judgement on this and to know what grade I should attach. The catalogue value jumpd enormously from EF to UNC. I see dirt I am scared to remove but do not see wear. To try for the best picture, I followed instructions from the Net and scanned three times: once uncovered, once covered by a coffee lid, and once with the lid lined with foil. Is there any difference? I cannot see any.

Looks like an UNC to me, but a better photo would be nice. A very gentle cleaning with pure acetone is something to consider.

Can't tell a thing about the '3', wide or otherwise, from the photos.
