Is the value there to pay to get it graded? For P01 lowballs yes |

A very scarce date in Poor 1 straight graded (or not) and worth a substantial premium over melt. A nice add!

PO-1. Hard to find PO-1 for this date. I'd submit it to a TPG, IMO. |

I'd like to send this off to get graded, but I've never sent something off before. I tried looking at the PCGS website, and I'm kind of nervous I'd fill out the paperwork incorrectly. I don't know I'f I'd have enough coins worth being graded to sign up for the membership on top of the grading fee. Do dealers submit coins for customers for a fee at all?

Look for a PCGS dealer that can submit it for you. They will charge a fee along with PCGS fees.

That is probably the route I'll go. I actually just called one place and they said they wouldn't do it unless I was looking to sell the coin. I hope I can find a good dealer to help me.

Either a dealer or someone here that does mass submissions where it could tag along for a bit less than a single submission rate...

The $249 membership that comes with the 8 vouchers, then use it on the regular gold shield tier and it saves you money on that submission. |

I found a place that said it would cost me $18 to get this coin graded. He sounded skeptical about wanting me to get a Poor 1 graded though. If it does come back a 1, what would it realistically be worth? I see someone trying to get a grand for one on ebay, but I doubt that's a great deal. |

If you send it off, send it off to either PCGS or NGC, you'll get a better return on your money if it gets a PO-01(which I believe it will quite easily) This may or may not be worth it depending on what you paid for it, but you should be able to get around $100 for it, PO01's have sold for between $90-150 at auction. If the cost of getting it graded plus the cost of the coin, as well as the ebay fees outweigh potential profit, you can consider selling it raw as a PO01 candidate and make a higher margin, that way you dont have to risk the outside chance of it getting an FR2 and you dont have to wait the 3+ weeks before you get it back. I could see it selling for around $35-45 raw. Edited by Adam_E
