VIN Help Please!!

I have finally located my VIN stamped on the passenger side frame rail just behind the front cross member. I have polished it enough to highlight the numbers, but something is still wrong with the numbers that I see. The best I can make out is as follows; *F3R2N 11718*. Kinda feel like there should be another letter after the "N" but the frame appears to be blank! What does the "N" represent or what should follow it?
