Unless you expect it to be MS63 or better, it is not advisable to have it graded, considering the cost of grading..
even if you ship 100+, it will still cost at least $8, or perhaps more.
you might just want to enjoy it the way it is.
Just my humble opinion...

I wasn't planning on having the coin graded. Just looking for grade opinions.

It looks like a solid MS-63 to me.

MS-62 Trace Red...I'm guessing that's the type of grade you'd get from ICCS.

I just received the coin today, and couldn't be happier. The coin looks great.

I will post some pictures later today, or tomorrow.

Hey, CB, O.K. so I'll retract my original grade of AU50,

With these pictures you have posted you can really see the difference, nice looking coin, I'll say MS-63.

These pictures, bring out all of the details a little, too well. The coin looks a lot nicer in hand.

I have an iPhone4S

I use my phone to take most of my pictures because I can email them to myself from my phone, and then upload onto the forum from my computer. Compared to having to take out my camera, then take all the pictures, then upload all of the pictures onto my computer, then being able to upload them to the forum.

My computer is also a couple years old, so uploading pictures from my cameras memory card takes a while.

All of the pictures from this thread (link below) were also taken with my phone. The pictures of a single coin seem to come out the best.
