I can definitely ask him next time I'm in there if he plans to send it off, and if he is, if I can take a picture of the result. I would think he would since the difference in how much professionally certified vs. uncertified examples sell for is wide enough that it makes financial sense to get it professionally certified. ANACS will cost <$15 so well worth the money.

Acts of honesty are very telling.

Hey Everyone!
Here's the final result. The coin was slabbed and attributed by ANACS as a 1909 S VDB! Thank you all for the really helpful information and discussion. This was an incredibly fun journey.

Good on you CRH!

If more people would put themselves on the other end of a situation, in the other person's shoes, this old world would be a better place. Yes, he gave it to you as an act of friendship and you gave it back as another act of friendship since he did not know what he had given you.

You have verified for him that he can trust you. What could possibly be worth more?
