wrk4lvg Pillar of the Community United States 756 Posts	Posted 07/22/2005 8:26 pm So worth sending off for grading then. Somebody mentioned that coins of excellent luster etc...and coins of value over 100$, I should look into sending off for grading. Report this Post to the Staff
Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 07/22/2005 9:33 pm Were you able to locate the coin in your book? Sending a coin out for grading is not as important as protecting your coins. There are may good products available for that purpose. Luster is but one of many factors that effect a coins value and grade. Most gold coinage, particularly older coins are worth encapsulating, but really it is a personal preference. Mike Edited by Mike 07/22/2005 9:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
national dealer Pillar of the Community United States 2724 Posts	Posted 07/23/2005 08:42 am 1904 Half Eagle? Is this a mint state coin? If this is not a MS-63 or better coin, I would not suggest slabbing the coin. Buy yourself an Airtite or an Intercept product and protect it that way. While I highly recommend protecting and storing this coin properly, it doesn't command the need for slabbing. Report this Post to the Staff
