Bassmaster Pillar of the Community United States 1130 Posts	Posted 08/13/2013 6:11 pm If you do weigh it, just weigh the coin, not the rim, I'm sure you knew this, but just making sure. Good luck! Report this Post to the Staff

nalaberong Pillar of the Community Canada 2805 Posts	Posted 08/13/2013 8:43 pm Have we ever had any real success stories on CCF before (for people finding ultra-rarities), or have they all been shot down by NGC and the like? Report this Post to the Staff

solotime Pillar of the Community United States 2311 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 12:32 am Don't forget about the guy who found the silver Kennedy. It was one that they didn't make silver. Can't remember the year... Report this Post to the Staff
KBrumley New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 07:59 am I am hopefully having it looked at today by a coin broker. My friend got me in contact with him, and he asked me to send him pictures last night. I did have the coin weighed yesterday and it weighed 2.695 grams. (Is that a good sign?) I am trying not to get my hopes up, but my fingers are crossed and I will most definitly let you all know what I find out. Everyone on here has been so helpful and I can not express to you how grateful I am. I am so glad that I found this site! Report this Post to the Staff
shootnstarz Valued Member United States 477 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 08:51 am Sorry for the loss of your grandmother. She must have been very close for you to wait 6 years to open the bag. Right up front that shows what kind of selfless person you are. Sure hope it turns out to be a real 44 steelie, pulling hard for you. That would be so great to find such a treasure in such an unlikely place. Definitely let us know what you find out. Rick Report this Post to the Staff

Bassmaster Pillar of the Community United States 1130 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 09:08 am If I was you, I would not let the coin guy buy it from you. Just let him see what he thinks about it. Let us know what he says. Report this Post to the Staff
Teach Pillar of the Community United States 1255 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 09:33 am I wouldn't sell the coin until I had a top grader grade the coin first. Report this Post to the Staff
