ANACS has posted an MS 66 grade in their population report under the 2007 GW $ Elongated Third Ray Variety.

Relatively few specimen of these Elongated Third Ray GW Presidential Dollars have been submitted to third party grading services despite the increased attention gained from magazine, internet, and CHERRYPICKER'S GUIDE forthcoming inclusion. Usually, dealers try to corner the market when lucrative coins are in short supply.

The intrigue and fascination surrounding these rogue die design alterations is the essence which feeds the wonderful world of die varieties ! IMO

Looks like you'll be waiting until Summer 2024 for it to show up in the CPG Volume III. The volume that comes out this year only goes through quarters.

Popularity on the Elongated Third Ray 2007 P GW$ will increase dramatically when the new CPG is finally published and released.

My youtube video about this Elongated Third Ray just posted 16K views from 7 months ago on Raleigh Coin Club Show + Tell at www.raleighcoinclub.org
