scopru Pillar of the Community United States 5029 Posts	Posted 09/26/2018 08:01 am Save your money. Put it in a flip and enjoy it. The cost of slabbing this coin would not be worth the price. Great 3 cent silver though!! Edited by scopru 09/26/2018 08:01 am Report this Post to the Staff

BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4588 Posts	Posted 09/26/2018 6:12 pm No... Fine details at best - the gouge at K9 will kill it. Even straight F15 or VF20 wouldn't be worth slabbing. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff

aztecj New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 09/29/2018 10:10 am Thank each of you very much. See, I've already learned enough to NOT bother posting pics of the other 2 silver 3 cent coins I have. As part of my ongoing quest to educate myself in this area I obtained an old (1977) copy of this book. Should still be relevant right? I love that line at the bottom: "Makes every collector an Expert" Report this Post to the Staff
