Best web enabled coin site

Which sites do you think are the best on the Internet for Coins? Especially those that leverage the medium?

My votes:

#1 - CU Forum site - self explanatory.

#2 (by a slim margin) Heritage auction archives. I've used this thousands of times for everything from research to locking on a current price for negotiations. Having access to all those images is incredible.

#3 - Registry set concept. I won't pick favorites here, but it is a neat way to track your collection and share with others. Not a big fan of the points-based competition. The highest point total is not necessarily the best collection (as we all know)

Coin Facts used to up high on the list, but with their recent elimination of the details, falls a few notches. I just can't see shelling out $50 for the CD. See my other thread.

What other useful sites are out there you can share with others?

Here is one about US Type Set collecting I found extremely helpful when starting out as a newbie. It's from an everyday collector who is building his collection on a budget.
