Becky Pillar of the Community United States 954 Posts	Posted 01/25/2006 10:47 pm Looks like a very nice VAM 9, an R-3 coin. Report this Post to the Staff
shatsi Pillar of the Community United States 1541 Posts	Posted 01/26/2006 08:54 am Hi Becky, Thank you, can you please elaborate on R-3? I have no idea what it means and I don't have the VAM book. Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/26/2006 09:22 am In non-VAM language it appears to be a repunched mintmark. R-3 is a rarity rating, and it depends on who's rarity scale you use as to whether that means it's common or scarce. In the EAC rarity scale an R-3 is common. In the URS (universal rarity scale) an R-3 is very rare. Report this Post to the Staff
Becky Pillar of the Community United States 954 Posts	Posted 01/26/2006 6:24 pm In " VAM speak" R-1 is common, R-8 is unique or nearly unique, so an R-3 is "scarce", but that means hundreds of thousands of this VAM where minted. It is a repunched MM, but is neither a Hot 50 or a Top 100 coin, so chances are that there will be little or no premium for the coin. But having said all this, it is still a very cool coin and a great find and thanks for sharing the pic. Your coin is a better example than the one in the VAM book. Report this Post to the Staff
