Looks like a standard VF-30 to me. In my mind no way it could exceed that.

Photos could be a bit clearer but, I'll say ICCS graded it either, EF-45 or AU-50 A beauty for sure and makes my VG-8 look sick.  |

Now for the reveal...
It is graded VF30, on it's way to PCGS

PCGS will grade it ef40 or 45.
Doesn't mean it's worth more.
But at least it'll be in a solid protective case.
Personally, being a Canadian resident, who collects Canadian coins, I feel ICCS is best for resale.
Plus, it costs a bundle sending coins to the US grading services.

I thought I'd send it in, as I had two free grading vouchers left that both expire in a week lol. I think that there is still value in regrading an "undergraded" coin, as the price it can bring in a lower graded ICCS holder is still lower. I would love to hear your insight though, as I haven't had much experience in price variance with PCGS vs ICCS

Personally I am under the impression that coins graded by PCGS hold a bit more of a premium than ICCS but thats my opinion.

@Coin-Flipper: your statement certainly holds true for mint state coins... but PCGS and ICCS definitely have different grading criteria for circulated coins... I cannot speak to circulated grades with PCGS, as the only circulated coins I have sent have been major errors (and the grade does not matter).

Any perceived premium of PCGS over ICCS coins, is in the seller's asking price because he is trying to recover the excessive difference he paid to PCGS and probably to obtain the same grade. Buy the coin, not the holder.
