What is the most unique piece you have had graded yourself?

Although it’s not unique in and of itself since there are some others out there, but it’s unique for me since I personally received it as a Y/N at an ANA show 32 years ago. I’ve since sold it because the price was right.

    I found this in a miniscule little coins shop years ago. I sent it in and got a grade that I thought was well-deserved. I sold it to someone a while back and I hope they're really enjoying it. What a warrior of commerce.

    Sorry there’s no pic, but I discovered a proof Hawaiian quarter in an attic collection. It had been housed for decades in one of those little brown envelopes. Official mintage is 26 pieces. Between the envelope and the environment, the surfaces had become quite etched. PCGS wound-up grading it PR62. Heritage later sold it at a FUN auction for about $10k.

    In your thread title, did you mean “you have had graded,” or “you have actually graded yourself?” I was replying to the latter, literal interpretation.
