[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1586909, member: 15929"]Doesn't the Redbook only count for coins that are truly PF65? I mean, this coin was obviously in someones pocket and will show signs of circulation. When this happens, PF58 is required along with a much lessor "value". If anything at all, its value is as a memorable coin but certainly nothing that would fetch any type of premium over 25 cents. Congrats to the OP though as its very exciting to find or at least notice something very different in the change you receive! However, I'd be remiss if I actually supported a $3-$4 true value for the coin. None the less, it's cool to find these "in the wild"! BTW, when I crack variety coins out of proof sets from 1968 through 2012, I typically spend the other proofs in the sets since it costs more to sell them than it's worth it to me given listing costs, final values fee's, shipping supplies, not to mention keeping track of everything! BTW, if anybody is interested, the next time I crack open proof sets, I'd be happy to send my cast offs to you if you pickup the associated costs which would come to about $3.00. Just shoot me a PM and I'll compile a list.[/QUOTE]
