(Very belated reply) @TheRed - that's a really handsome groat, too- I like the portrait on it.
Oh, yikes.
1927 Peace dollar: while that's a somewhat better date, I don't think that one needs a slab or would be worth the extra time and expense. Maybe...
Wow! Not quite what I was expecting to see when I clicked in to this thread. Consider me pleasantly surprised! :)
