I just got the result back! It is in fact genuine! It was graded G 06 Details, Rim Filed! I sent my friend to go pick it up, I will post a pic soon! What shall I offer my friend for this coin?

What a wonderful find! Even back in the 1960's. G-6 is a fair grade but I am surprised they gave it a number with the details designation. It should be worth at least a AG-3 value.

Great fun indeed. Congratulations to your friend .... curious why he waited nearly 50 years to 'explore' authenticity?
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art
Rest in Peace

Nice!

Because they gave a number grade along with the details designation, I assume you sent it to ANACS?

Enough that he'll still be your friend after the deal is done but not so much that you won't be happy with the deal.

Yes. It is in an ANACS holder. It only cost $10, and I got it back in one week.

Nice work. Congrats! I'd agree with AG-3 price, maybe a little less.

Agreed. That may be a fine line, but not indeterminable.
