 Lovely colors, struck from worn dies MS64RB I am not an expert on LWC's so others may have different opinions. I wouldn't get it graded, though. Stick it in an album and enjoy it. Grading it at PCGS or NGC is going to cost you 30-40 bucks.

 to the CCF!! That is one heck of a change find! Super cool, and thanks for sharing!! It looks like there is little to no rub on the high points, although a touch of toning. The reverse has me questioning whether this has original surfaces or not. Clear photos with less light reflection will help with that. My first instinct is MS-62RB. This is way better than my 1914 found in change, I can barely get the date off the thing! I agree with you, a roughly three-month turnaround time to grade a coin is a little ridiculous and a turn off in my opinion. I've never had a coin graded myself and don't really have the desire to. I want to see and hold my coins, not have them travel through the mail and hope they are in good hands.

Great find! I agree with MS64 RB. Not worth grading unless you just want it in a slab b/c you like slabs. It will cost you too much.

I'm in with MS64, perhaps 64+. Check ebay sales info for recently sold slabbed examples.

i have to agree with MS64RB, its borderline gradable. personally I would put it in my album or seal it in a air tight which may be the better option. be careful where you store this as a higher humidity area could start pushing this coin darker. super find

Nice looking 1914! I like it!
MS-62RB or 63 if it has decent cartwheel luster.

MS-63RB . That's one heck of a find in change . I wouldn't send it in , either put it in a nice AU-UNC album or plastic holder .

i'd like to see this one without all the glare to see the surfaces and fields better. I had it MS64RB but the more I look at it, it might be closer to 63 but cant tell for sure using these photos

I'm in at ms63rb, possibly 64rb, I'd have to see it in hand, surfaces appear original based on the photos, but the photos aren't clear enough for me to give an accurate judgement.

Surfaces look original, I'll bump my assessment to MS-63RB.
