1961 Proof Quarter. Do you guys think that it's worth sending in to be slabbed? All I have is an iPhone so sorry for the picture quality. It's as close as I could get

Thanks for the reply, but what do you mean by reverse crud? This coin is like a very reflective mirror. There's no blemishes. If you mean that dark area, that is the reflection of my finger holding my phone

There is no way to tell from those pictures if the coin is worthy of a slab. However, as T-BOP said, there is nothing spectacular here. Common date, not likely CAM, and would have to certify at PR70, PR69CAM or PR68DCAM to justify the cost of grading. It's better to just keep it as it is.
Rest in Peace

JDS420 , on the reverse of your quarter there is a greenish substance near right lower wing of the eagle, also the same substance is in between leaves on left side.

As stated above, unless it's a 69 or 70 DCAM, it's not worth it. Nice coin though, just keep as is.
