Put the coin in a plastic coin flip or 2X2 use a fine Sharpie mark the Queen center and 6 oclock flip over and hopefully it is a 180

Hard to tell for sure from that photo but what I'm looking is if the Obverse has been altered.
Can you get a clearer photo with no glare.

Congrats. Get it professionally graded for a nice score.

I've never had a coin graded or auctioned before. I want to know what you experts think about 2 things:
1. Should I have this graded by ICCS or PCGS?
2. Do you think I would get the best price if it was auctioned at TCNC or Heritage?

Although I, personally, never have coins graded but in your case, and at this time, I would say ICCS. I would normally suggest PCGS 90 times out of a hundred, but Trump has put up lots of question marks for collectors. You already would pay a LARGE fee with across-the-border transactions, but this new 50% crap would eat you alive if it were enacted. You are much safer keeping this within the Canadian borders so you do not have to chance time delays or big bucks. Once all this tariff crap comes to a conclusion, you can THEN send it to PCGS or NGC or any other TPG. In this present time and place, you are better off with ICCS. |

Thanks for the advice. I've sent it to ICCS to be graded. I'll keep you posted with how it grades.

I said I'd report back after grading. ICCS graded the coin as MS63.
