Sorry I fell asleep right after posting, but I definitely feel she over paid, believe she said it was 3 & a half bills, but I'm having trouble finding a value for the 2023's?

And is that a bunch of b.s. the whole struck in 22 but on a 23 coin? I believe I remember seeing a post on here about the "first strike" editions being a gimmic, but not sure if this falls in same category?

Lastly, is ANACS a reputable grading organization? Again forgive my ignorance, but think I remember discussions on this forum that talked about the reputations of different grading companies? But this my first experience with any of em, so I don't know if they're considered the "macy's" of grading institutions, or the "dollar general"

ANACS is one of the top 3. $350 is not too bad. If you click the link I posted you can see they were struck in 2022.

ANACS is a reputable company, it is in the top 4 to whom you can entrust your coins, including PCGS, NGC and ICG.
Perhaps the person really overpaid a little, since she does not know the coin market well and places where you can buy cheaper, this is normal. just enjoy the gift and don't worry too much.

IMHO,this is a case of buying the holder and not the coin. Beware of that unless you do collect holders.

Whatever I get her, she's likely to return, either discreetly take it to the bank and have it deposited in our account, or buy something for us!!! That's just who she is

Sometimes the thought is what counts. I would appreciate the thought and keep for sentimental value. Sorry to get off topic but I told my wife I wanted a penny for my birthday. I told her a 1909S VDB penny and she looked it up and said I don't think so.

Thanks for everyone's compliments on the beautiful coin! And that's a great idea docpoco, she can't return what wasn't purchased, however my woodworking skills just may be taken the wrong way, might think I just bringing over the limbs I just picked up before mowing, yet calling it a bird perch!! I'm just being my typical, messy self, that is a good idea, just gotta figure out what it could be now!!

And I'll repeat, I think I have the best, sweetest, most generous mother in law possible! Bout to post a different coin she just gifted
