    I think it's worth less than $30.

    My interpretation of the image is that this coin was from a US Mint Set, which does not make the coin special, but likely means it has some blue or auburn tint to each side. That color combination of blue and auburn is fairly indicative of the typical 1956 US Mint Set silver coinage and most of these coins are nothing special in terms of eye appeal. Therefore, I view this coin as a generic silver coin that has a Greysheet bid of $130 pre roll. Of course, I realize that not all the coins in the roll will be MS66 quality, but with a little searching you can find an equivalent raw coin for $10 or thereabouts. If you were to take this coin at a value of $30 then you might have difficulty getting out of the coin in the black. The PCGS price guide can be fantasy, both high and low, for different issues.

    Looks like not to bad a price for that coin to me.
