Hello,
I purchased an album with some wheat cents from my LCS and pulled this one from the old album because the obverse had some nice green-ish toning but the reverse is also so nicely toned.
I'm not sure if it's worth sending out to be graded or just put in a 2x2 and keep in the collection. Any thoughts?

I revised this post to add another 1941 D with the same toning.

Beautiful toning, but the value wouldn't justify the grading costs. Just put them in 2x2s and enjoy them.

Awesome toners, they have my fav green color! Not worth slabbing, these would probably be around MS-63 so the cost would outweigh any benefit. Rinse with acetone and put them in airtites to freeze the toning where it is.

Nice pick ups! I'd save them in 2x2s.

Agree, attractive but definitely not worth professional grading.

Why not grade them yourself? This is what I did before third-party grading became a thing.

The Red Book as well as tons of websites have all of the information on how to do that.

Great looking toned Wheat Cents, but not worth the time or money getting it graded, by a TPG. These aren't worth enough to justify grading costs.

Pretty nice toning, not worth grading.

Agree with what has already been said. Attractive coins and 2x2 worthy.
