If it graded that high, I would keep it for the time being as it is a coin not lot of people will ever get to add to their collection.

Assuming it actually did come back as a 67, do you really need the money right now? If not(and at 14 I doubt you do) I would put it away in a very safe place,under proper storage conditions, and notworry about it until you Do really need the money. After all it ain't eatin' nothin'.

Nearly freaked when I saw these orders. They arrived at PCGS on the 25th, so I thought one of these may be mine. They weren't.

Cruisinfusion, I also have socks older than you. They are tattered and holed. But they still work. One cannot buy coins and dress in new clothes. Nor go out often. In a sentence: "I scrimp on the necessities to afford the luxuries." For me, that is coins.

You mentioned on another forum having bought this coin in 1984. How did you manage that, if you're 14?
I hate to put it this way, but between having two separate identities here (one of which we had to lock), and the discrepancies in this story, you're really on our radar.

one thing to keep in mind. if you find a cash buyer no paper trail for the right price sell it and diversify. not saying the world is going to be like waterworld but if the world economy collapsed id rather have $30,000 in collector coins and $30,000 in gold bullion than one coin worth 60,000. tough to make change when you go to feed your family. anytime you find a guy rich enough to buy cash with no paper trail your better off funneling the $60,000 into smaller increments keep all your receipts for bullion so if you sell you can deduct cost. At one point the government tried to make us give records of what people sold so they could tax them but the big money players like I worked for said don't forget when they sell that diamond that cost 10,000 for 1,000 you have to let them deduct that too and believe the government would have ended up on the short end of that one. didn't you ever wonder why a guy sells $20,000 worth of 90% silver coin and doesn't get a 1099

A young collector with a potential valuable coin....of course you should keep it in your collection.

SsuperDdave, I thought I sorted that out; that wasn't me.

OUR radar, or YOUR radar? I'd like to hear from two other moderators who back you up. Innocent until proven guilty and I await evidence.

I am hoping for the best for you. If it turns out to be a $60,000 coin (which I highly doubt from the pictures, no offense), I'm sure you will be ecstatic. As a YN waiting for validation of a potential $2,000 coin, I know how you feel. The only problem is that the only person able to authenticate it is in Baja California right now with NatGeo.
