Nice find!
That trade dollar is a beauty!
The coin just looks "rubby" to me. Maybe in person, it would show great luster and no rub points. Either way, I would not get it graded.
I think making these sorts of connections at a young age can be a good thing, as you establish a reputation for yourself. Just make sure that...
I'm thinking that it is in a VF-25 holder. Very nice piece!
That's what the 50D is worth, but you can't expect to buy a Jefferson Set for that money.

The PCGS price guide is extremely high on some items an dvery conservative on other items. I like to use realized auction results, like Doug said.
Hmmm....interesting thread. It would be interesting to see this coin in person. I don't think you can use mintmark placement as a way to...
