[QUOTE="tfj, post: 1488485, member: 39153"]Mike (and others), thanks for your insight on this coin. You all are some top-notch folks. I made it through the night with the coin safely relocated and after hiring a local militia to guard the hiding place. :) I know nothing about coins other than what I'm learning through this thread. I don't collect, nor does my father-in-law. But his father was wise enough to figure that this coin had some potential value to it. I'm excited to share the news with him. So that being said, are we better off sending this coin in ourselves to be graded, or should I coordinate with a dealer to have this done? I'm a little concerned now about getting somehow screwed in the process... Should we get it graded before contacting a dealer to consider our options? At this point I don't have any problem traveling to the Seattle side of WA to find a more specialized dealer that our local shops. Finally, is there a consensus as to who would be able to grade an error coin? Is it just a matter of preference between the PCGS, NGC, or [COLOR=#333333]ANACS[/COLOR]?[/QUOTE]
