Is this Lincoln 1951 d/d worth sending in to be graded/certified?

Simply put, No way. That is only worth as a MS62 (tops, more like straight uncirculated MS60) coin no more than a couple bucks, even with an RPM. I can't even sell nicer MS's 1950's w/RPMs for $1.79 on ebay! Grading costs are $60 minimum, usually closer to $100. Unless you coin can be sold for $200, it really isn't woth the expense, and frustration.

Look at this site, the lower left table lists an "arbitrary" value, not a real world realized price...

Ding ding ding! Correct. I get that several sites would like to see this coin for images for their sites.

Very nice find! It's 1MM-001 on coppercoins.com. It's not worth getting it graded as it would exceed the value of your coin. It would cost more to get it graded then what the coin is worth. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mds

But I would expect a better price than normal. Perhaps 2X the price. Not even the sites have images of it.

I would suggest getting it graded if it has significant value to you not necessarily monetary value. I got my Merc dime graded even though it was only MS-65.

Nice find! However, don't send it to be graded. Not worth the cost of grading.
