Wow. This is actually better than I expected. Now the question is whether to send it for TPG.

The coin will be given to my grandson in the very near future. He hasn't shown interest in collecting and my feeling is that he would sell it help with college expenses. That kind of makes me sad but it's the harsh reality of life.

It's in an Intercept Shield capsule now. Is that protection enough and would it bring a higher price if professionally graded?

Thanks so much for your expertise and advice.

You may want to sell it and give him the money for college. Much greater chance he gets ripped off than you.

Not worth the expense to getting it grade from TPG unless is in MS grade. IMO.
