Thanks for the info. Much appriciate it, I have been told that my coin is not slender 3, it is an open 3. Let me know if you are interested Dave. I stay in OM I did look at the link you have provided the sellers have mentioned that the coin is unique, its a shame mine could not refute the claim

In my opinion the condition is Fine + with a clear date. The date is 1863 and the type is slender 3. The coin was purchased by my grandpa and it was in his collection. We sold about 200 of his coins some shiny ones people would rate XF for about 130 $. We were about to get rid of the rest another 300 coins for about 220 $ as well when a pal of mine pointed out that a lot of these coins that are rare. He did say that there was a 1863 coin with a die number 5 which sold recently for a sum I would not even imagine. I guess he thinks my math is very bad. He singled out this coin alone and said it alone is worthover 50 times what you are getting for the lot The coin is a Stacks Envelope dated 1976. It says VF and price on it is 5,44 so my mom assumed it was worth 5 $ 44 cents. My pal disagrees and says it was purchased for 544 $ in 1976. I have sent a mail out to Stacks to find out, but have not had a reply yet. So I thought I'd post on this forum. Any help is much appriciated. Steve

I am a newbie. Mate of mine says I have this coin and says its very rare. I just got this from a collection I inheristed from my gramps. Can anyone kindly tell me if this is a rare coin and what it maybe worth. From what he said I thought it may be forth 10000 £. But I know how people can blow up things Thanks Steve
