You should have P55 because luvmyCAM got it right. Congratulations on a great grade and luvmyCAM for hitting the grade on the mark. Absolutely fantastic find and it couldn't have happened to a better family. Plus, with you taking the images we get to see it in all it's clear and impressive glory. I'm curious if you sent it to the TPG directly or if the auction house sent it in? (I've heard some TPG's hit a high dollar coin like this with a percentage of the value "surcharge" when they grade it.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

I didn't get charged a percentage of value but all said it was $400 to grade. $70 for membership, $85 to ship, $250 to grade (&return shipping) via "walkthrough" service. PCGS started the service on a Tuesday and it was in my hand on that Friday. A very satisfactory process all around.

I had to go from guest to member just to comment on this. I don't have the same coin you found, but I do have a child just like yours!! She's almost 16 now and had heart surgery at 5 months old. The scariest day of my life, but it was worth it to get where we are today!! Congrats on the coin find and more importantly, congrats on the amazing child you have. You don't even know yet the joys to come!!!

Genuine Cleaned. @Jim0815 - How did you arrive at that opinion.  The OP has already told us this was certified PCGS MS64RD. A truly magnificent CRH find.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.artToo many hobbies .... too much work .... not enough time. |

I missed the ms-64 part! That is a lifetime cent. What blows me away is it was still in the wild after 56 years.
