I'd say definitely not. Looks like a circulated, possibly cleaned coin. Not worth much in this condition.

Ali83,
Did you have a chance to read the links I posted for you on grading and values?That should have answered your question on this coin.
Please don't hesitate on posting question on any of your coins though,we are here to help.I moved your thread to the grading section.

Agree with the above. John1's suggested grading resources are must read.

Ali, most folks entering the hobby or who have never sent a coin in for grading have no idea what it costs. there are two reasons to slab a coin. the chances you will find a coin that has sufficient value in circulation to cover grading costs is extremely rare

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

Thank you to everyone, especially John1 and Panzaldi!
I will go read the grading info links, I was away from the internet for a bit, and missed the move and the links.
I appreciate the kindness of the people on this site.
