It certainly looks nice in that secure holder.

Congrats! Looks nicer than the original pictures. Was it conserved?

WheatBack, did this coin ever find a home? PM me or email me if not.

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.
