    That coin is probably in my top 3 of most striking coin designs ever (no pun intended lol). Outstanding Marty!

    No, this is a MS coin.

    Can't be-that is as proof (if the image is accurate) as any proof coin I've seen posted.image I'm not trying to be critical or argumentative but I suppose it doesn't matter in the long run:the difference in value is only $3.50 between an UNC and your (admittedly beautiful)image proof MS66.

    I wonder what you paid for it, considering slabbing costs. Is this coin for your collection or for resale? What would this coin fetch on E-bay? Is there a strong premium over Krause on this St. Stephen 900th anniversary 1938 proof re-strike?

    I must tell you I paid $22.00 for a fairly nominal 1938 MS63 UNC , unslabbed, nice 'n bright avec lustre, about 6 months ago.

    I paid $12.50 for the coin and $11 for the grading. I picked up the coin because I really liked the design! The proof re-strike is still in and should be home soon!
