I always wanted something like this for a pocket piece. Should I break her out?  Edited by Andrew99 10/05/2017 10:06 am

You'll lose a few pockets with that beast. The only thing the slab is doing is confirming authentically. If you never plan on selling it, it doesn't matter. Although I can't see why you don't get a big heavy silver chain and wear this outside your shirt. Great advertisement for buying coins

It either belongs in your pocket or a 7070 album keying on holed examples, so the answer is yes - move that bus...

Break it out and attach it to your key chain.

I'm with mox. You should use it as it was intended. Get a nice red or other brightly colored silk string and wear it as a necklace.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I'd have it made into a belt buckle.

Not a bad idea. The Peace dollar my grandfather gave me was in a belt buckle for many years. I can still see him wearing it. I think the buckle broke a long time before he gave me the dollar which is why I do not have it.

Break it out and have it professionally plugged , maybe by a highly authorized Jeweler . Bet you get double your money back on E-Bay or more .

Carson City. Now I'm wondering what the date on that beauty is...
