When you make good with a grading company!

Hi everybody,
I'm back into coin collecting after a 20 year hiatus and have been watching the YouTube channel and lurking the forums getting back into the groove & expanding my knowledge. I've been genuinely having fun and enjoying myself reconnecting with the hobby. (Big shoutout and thank you to Daniel and everyone here dripping with knowledge & geekery!! )
So I submitted an....interestingly.... toned 1974-S 50C Proof Kennedy in for grading because.... why not? I had a voucher. The grades came back today and imagine my surprise when I click on the "Coin Facts" button and the poster child example for a Cameo coin has been refreshed with MY COIN on the front page!
I'm such a nerd that my first actual thought was: "Cool...I didn't know that the online visual registry was refreshed dynamically...wait....whaaaaa....??"
I'm nobody. Just a dude watching coinhelpu on youtube! I thought you had to be a baller making it rain $$$ all up in PCGS to get a coin featured like that.
I shall call it: Grassy knoll
The more you look at it....the cooler it gets...

You're a trip man! More like a family of 3 at Mcdonald's but it just doesn't do it for me like a Coin like this does!
