Unlike 20 years ago, today you cannot collect coins worth more than $200 without buying slabs, in general. The collection is in your mind, not a binder. It will not be saleable outside of the slab, so why decrease it value?

I believe a user here found a 09-s vdb in circulation several years ago. Folks were skeptical but he provided screenshots of the coin and later the slab. I thought it came back "details" but I can't recall. I think he worked a cash register and found it in a roll. Maybe someone can find the old topic.

Thanks COTW, that's the thread I was referring to. I wasn't a member back then but I remember it coming up in a search I did. Truly goes to show you can find anything CRH. It's all about right place, right time. Highly doubt the 09-S VDB was in circulation long.. someone probably dumped it from a collection and that particular user was in the right place at the right time! Man - I have't CRH in about 5 months.. this makes me want to go get some rolls!

Congratulations Paola - great feeling isn't it?!

Mine was found in circulation - but in the late 50s/early 60s by my grandfather.

Nice pick up ! --

I would Crack it out for the album. If things got bad in the future, I would pay to have it "re-slabbed". (And trust me, if things got bad, this would be the LAST coin you would sell, not the first, there would be time - )
Enjoy that satisfaction that few get to enjoy.
