Awesome! Hope that kid looks back in 50 years and can say "there's that coin I won at that coin show thing as a kid"!

Excellent video Bobby ... Thanks for sharing the tremendous outreach that CCF is making to young collectors.  Wish I were there ... alas too much work. David
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

If I were in Florida, I would go straight to your table and roll the dice.

Isn't that a $300 coin? What a lucky kid! He looked kind of in shock, but hopefully he realizes what he has when he looks closer at it back home.

Quote: Probably $150 or so. Still a pretty nice piece for merely rolling dice. :) $150 is a tad optimistic in NGC 63. This one is available in Prooflike and DMPL which suppresses the non-PL value a bit and there's a "PCGS Premium" here too. There's a subvariety, VAM-30A, where the obverse crack through the M becomes a displaced field. I think the R5 rating on it at VAMworld is a bit low; it's a toughie. Hopefully this wasn't one.

Russ (twohawks) donated it so you can bet your butt it wasn't a 30A.

Alrighty then.  Seriously, though, you could tell from the pic in this thread if it were 30A. Just taking a chance to poke someone in the belly.

You can bet there's no E on it as well.  But seriously, way to go Russ! That was a terrific donation and I'd like to think you just created another future generation VAMmer.

Sorry to cause argument. It's very generous, at either value.
