2006 No Logo Magnetic Penny

It's a nice, fresh-looking coin but I think it's just a common variety and worth one cent. I think the magnetic non-RCM ones are the 'special' type.

I can assure you this is magnetic (hard to show) and has neither the RCM logo nor the P composition mark. This isn't a common penny but not as rare as the 2006P non-magnetic.

looks like an MS-64

I have never had any of my coins graded, how much does this cost usually and does it add to the overall value of the coin. I have found several of these and was considering selling a couple. So is it better to get them graded first before attempting to sell or sell without grading. I have also thought about keeping them for awhile as the CND mint tries its best to destroy our penny.

but I must add that these are not common at all, I went through 2 million pennies last few years and only found 38 of them

Thanks gidjit for the info. Was the one you sold on ebay graded or not. I have found about 8 of these and none of the 2006P in searching over 600,000 pennies. I have found people selling the 2006P in sets as well, but was hoping to find one CRH but no luck yet.

Wow that is a fantastic return on a 1 cent penny search, congrats! Are you still getting CND pennies to hunt through where you reside?

I paid $42 for one of these in high grade on ebay earlier this year. It included postage and GST.
I don't think grading a coin makes it more valuable per se - an MS63, graded or not, is still an MS63.
What it does for me as a buyer though, is gives me more confidence that it really is an MS63 although the grading company could be wrong. Some random guy grading his own coin is more likely to be wrong and more likely to inflate the condition of his own coin. With an expensive coin I may only want to buy from a third party graded coin if I trust the grading company.
