I don't know how much slabbing costs but these run $45 to $70 on ebay slabbed at about your grade.

Unfortunately I only have an iPhone camera and I don't think I can get a close enough shot of it. The Red Book lists it at only $5.00, I'm assuming from what I've seen and heard that this coin is worth at least 3-4 more than than and way more if slabbed?

Thanks guys, I think I'm just going to get it slabbed because I want it protect and graded for my collection. What's the best company? I was thinking NGC but it's $25-$30 a coin

IMO there is no need to get it slabbed. Anyone who collects coins will know what a WAM is and it is obvious just by looking at it. You don't have to spend $50 (the coin is worth $5.00) to have some person put a sticker on it and tell you what you already know. I would put it in a 2x2 (thats where my one and only WAM is) or airtight.
Rest in Peace
