The whole fun for me was sending it off and checking the PCGS site multiple times daily for a month. I have tracking on it now and should arrive on Saturday.
The journey, not the destination.

It certainly looks nice in that secure holder.

Glad to see this came back positive. It sure looked good to me, but not being qualified to give an opinion therefore I didn't Too many people jump up and say Fake to fast. Great Coin!

WOW!!! So glad this one was real! I don't have one, not sure I would want this one, but what a fantastic, feel good story! Yes, I have been collecting for a very long time, but someone asked a question that I wanted to ask...do they do anything to conserve the coin at PCGS? Meaning, it has to have been in a lot of bare hands, so do they do a mild cleaning of any kind before they seal it?

I never ended up purchasing since it's not really something I collect. The dealer bought it and is in their display case for sale.
