worth grading? I think it looks good enough but I would like a second opinion(s) before sending.

So you're thinking you have a MS-67 here? Otherwise, no sense grading it. Personally, I don't think it's a 67.

The fields are nice, but the cheek and hair on obverse have enough bag marks and abrasions to keep it out of the 66 class, I'd guess. Anything other than 67 or better, which I doubt this would make, is really not worth spending the money to grade by a TPG.

I have this one at around MS-62ish. So no need to get it graded, just enjoy it as is.

Ew, no, I don't think it's anywhere near a 67.

Coinfrog makes a great point. This is a super nice coin, but for the year and mint, it has to be absolutely PERFECT to be worth grading. I just got back a 1957 Washington that I rolled the dice on because I thought it was flawless. It came back MS65, so it's an awesome coin, but I didn't make any money in the bargain. In the same batch, I also sent out an 1883 Hawaii dime that I thought might come back as F30. I was pleasantly surprised to have it come back as XF45. That made the whole batch I sent out (8 coins) worth it. My advice when considering grading is not to mess around with super modern coins, period, unless you are getting an error certified. There is just too much competition for newer coins. In the batch I referred to above, I also sent in 2 Walkers and 2 Franklins which I thought were exceptional. They all graded out between 63 and 65. Now they're in slabs, but ho-hum, so what. Best luck, Dave
