Quote:(I've heard some TPG's hit a high dollar coin like this with a percentage of the value "surcharge" when they grade it.) I think that is for the rarities coins that are over 100k. I didn't get charged a percentage of value but all said it was $400 to grade. $70 for membership, $85 to ship, $250 to grade (&return shipping) via "walkthrough" service. PCGS started the service on a Tuesday and it was in my hand on that Friday. A very satisfactory process all around. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

I had to go from guest to member just to comment on this. I don't have the same coin you found, but I do have a child just like yours!! She's almost 16 now and had heart surgery at 5 months old. The scariest day of my life, but it was worth it to get where we are today!! Congrats on the coin find and more importantly, congrats on the amazing child you have. You don't even know yet the joys to come!!!

Genuine Cleaned. @Jim0815 - How did you arrive at that opinion.  The OP has already told us this was certified PCGS MS64RD. A truly magnificent CRH find. |

I missed the ms-64 part! That is a lifetime cent. What blows me away is it was still in the wild after 56 years.

It was fun getting to meet Rick for the first time while bringing in this coin. His reaction was a memorable one.

LJ's surgery was a success! Thank you for all the prayers! I updated some of the details on substack: https://open.substack.com/pub/coinh...OnShare=trueThere will also be an update to the listing description of this variety over at Wexler's which I explain in that link as well. |
