    That's quite a leap. You have very good eyes. Congrats on a very successful purchase.

    Big Juli really got a bum deal. Murdered by folks he liked and now history is going cheap on him.

    No correction was necessary.

    Why don't you people try the PMG website since you're so interested in paper money and not coins? https://www.pmgnotes.com/

    I think the whole NGC vs PCGS is a myth. Both have different, but accepted, standards of grading. There will always be two separate and different supporting groups of people. I.E. I use NGC for all my gold coins and PCGS for all my silver. No scientific data to support my choice; just personal opinion.

    Hate to bring this up but that 'Background' is mighty familiar. Eh?

    Everytime I try to Like your comment I get: Sorry, there was a problem reacting to this content. Don't get it with anyone else. Have you been a bad boy?

    I second that. If not - it's a 'World' record.

    That '47' Quarter is nice.

    Do you think maybe some fellas had 'heavy' pockets that day?

    It's always great to see someone take enough interest in our hobby to learn the art of grading. It might just wind up saving you a lot of money. Myself I do not believe that I, or anyone else can give an exact grade taken from an internet photo. Now a days when we send a coin into NGC or PCGS you have about 4 trained quality graders looking at your coin before a final grade is rendered. Just saying. Hope some of this was of a little help. Pay attention to what Woods & Mohawk have said. When you say "deployment" do you mean Military?

    You don't have to spend that much. Go on EBay and research 'Coin Holders" or 'Coin Slabs' and you can get a fairly nice 'case' for your penny.

    I all you want is to put a favorite coin in a slab check out the lowest submission cost for ANACS, NGC, PCGS and there are a few more.

    A bit hard to do these days.
  23. Alex in PA.
    I'd also like to add that the counterfeiters are good at making slabs too.

    @gmarguli has given us all 'Food for Thought'. No one ever proved, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the Chinese were stupid.
