1972 American Revolution Bicentennial Commemorative Medal

I recently picked up a American Revolution Bicentennial Commemorative Medal that came in a First Day issue envelope. The medal has a P on the obverse but no date. I looked in PCGS and could not find a PCGS# for this medal. They have a 1991-P that matches that medal name, but this came from the Treasury in 1972. Any ideas of a PCGS coin # for this medal?
Best part of the coin is the reverse has "Join or Die" slogan for Benjamin Franklin May9th, 1754, against the French and their Indian allies and later used for the Revolutionary War. When the government stood by its convictions and Americans were willing to put down their life for their children and grandchildren's welfare.
Where did we stray? Now it us over our children. Sad. Entitlement Syndrome, sacrifice is out the window.
Thanks in advance for any information.

    I could be very wrong but PCGS only grades a limited number of medals and I just don't think this is one of them.

    From the Registry for Medals:

    American Arts Gold Medallions, Circulation Strikes (1980-1984)
    Presidential Bronze Medals (2007-2015)
    First Spouse Bronze Medals (2007-2015)

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
