It's definitely a proof strike, so agree the value would not justify grading.

Very nice proof. But I don't think it worth it. Others may have a different opinion.

Appears to be a proof coin. Although it is a very nice specimen, I agree with others that this coin is not worthy of submission to a TPG.

I'll say PF-67. Nice coin, but not worth getting it slabbed by a TPG.
Errers and Varietys.

Probably PF-67 or 68 but not worth the grading fees.

Lovely coin but as a Proof strike is not worth the grading fees.

Well it's Proof not MS. So of course it is well struck but hard to grade a proof from pictures.

most folks have no idea what it costs to grade a coin. it's crazy expensive now. this will give you an idea
consider the following for having a coin professionally graded two reasons to slab 1. its a rare coin that needs authenticated and preserved 2. you are planning on selling the coin and the cost of acquisition plus the grading fee's would warrant it without chewing up all your profit
PCGS charges a minimum of $69 for a subscription other subscription levels include grading vouchers though so you could reduce these costs. add to the subscription cost, per coin grading cost which I think for this one might be $23, shipping & ins both ways (1-4 coins is $27 if the total value is under $1000)
NGC - economy grading tier is $22, plus $10 handling fee, plus $28 for shipping (1-5 coins).
ANACS grading would be $16 but there's a 5 coin minimum. Shipping would be $29-35.
CAC - $99 subscription ($50 grading credit), economy grading $15, gold $28, $40 shipping/handling/ins
i don't slab coins for these reasons especially the cost involved. I don't know why this is so popular today. just making the grading companies wealthy

The only reason why I have a PCGS set of Ikes is the generosity of those who paid to get them graded. I am certain few, if any, profited from their effort.
