[QUOTE="shaner, post: 2123879, member: 73658"]I gotta say... When I talked to Tom, I stated how he was direct, firm if you will, we laughed about it, no harm done, in fact, just the opposite. He and others were and still are a huge help. There could have been opportunities to change the outcome of this whole thing and who knows what would have happened. At least now, the coin sits on a PCGS holder and I cant slip it into a soda machine and buy a coke. What's really weird to me... is I grew up in a restoration shop working on classics... polishing, waxing, shining all kinds of metals, paints etc. Its only natural to me to want to make that coin as shiny and as nice as possible. Now, I a very grateful I took everyone's advice and no touched it. A can of brasso and mothers aluminum polish were within 3 feet of that coin at one point. Thanks to everyone that I met or have used your advice. Appreciate the integrity also. There are still nice people out there.[/QUOTE]
