PCGS For The WIN!!
Hey, guys. I'm sure you recall a few weeks ago, I posted about a special coin that I was given to celebrate the end of my cancer treatment. I posted about it here and on Reddit and joked that I couldn't spend it and that PCGS probably wouldn't grade it. Well, someone from PCGS saw the post and contacted me. They asked that I send it to them. I did. They sent it back to me holdered. It's one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me and I will always remember getting THIS coin back from the grading company!

Daniel: I'm not very good at videos and I'm still kind of camera-shy given my appearance after 6 months fighting this disease. If you want to do a shoutout on one of your videos, I give you full and complete permission to use the pictures and my name. Thanks!

Re: PCGS For The WIN!!
PCGS certainly deserve kudos for a great PR department as well! Good on PCGS!
And congrats on both: Beating the cancer and this wonderful gift from PCGS.

Re: PCGS For The WIN!!
Being a newer member here I just want to congratulate and share my best regards to you in your success becoming a cancer survivor. I have personally been affected by this terrible affliction as it took my dad at 59 and an uncle a few years earlier as well as an aunt. Pancreatic cancer cancer took the men and the aunt died from liver cancer so I am always joyous for those of you and a number of friends who survive this disease. God bless you and give Him the glory when you share, fellow enthusiast, nice story of acts of kindness.
