Thanks for all the comments on this coin, the story, and the prayers for LJ!

I'll follow up with that grade later today.

Congratulations on an absolutely spectacular find! IMHO, the two obverse hits and surface bagginess on the coat will hold it to MS-63. It is an incredible find. I can only remember one other person on this board finding one many years ago.

We join with you in prayers for your son.

Congratulations on a an exceedingly rare find very very good news both for you and the other gentelman. If you both decide to auction this beauty I hope it goes wacko high! Thank you for sharing. This one gets the bump up I see BU MS-64 Red.

It sounds like that '69S DDO is a beauty but a distant third to your son and wife.

Congratulations on all of them and my thoughts will be with you and your family.

ps. I want to say MS 64 Red, but I think Ft. Collins is right about the hits & blemishes keeping it at 63.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

You should have P55 because luvmyCAM got it right.

This graded 64RD!

Congrats again on the coin and on the grade. Given the tough (and sometimes unpredictable) grading the TPGs have been doing lately, that's higher than I expected. It's very nice to see that grade on your coin.
