  I found this in a roll at the bank awhile back and had forgot about it. It's the most beautiful Wheat cent I've ever found in a roll.

Photos show mint state luster but they are too blurry for a grade opinion.

I thought it looked really good for a bank roll find. I'll see if I can get a better pic and see what yall think. I have a hard time getting the right shot. I'm ordering a USB microscope for checking out my coins so my picture issue will be solved hopefully

Thanks guys. When I get home I'll try and take some better pictures to see if someone can maybe assign a ballpark grade. Is it worth sending off to get graded proper? If so what might it be worth?

Every once in a while you just happen to catch one that's been sitting in someones piggy bank for decades. Nice score.

well, the first one I see on google has a $50,000 price tag. Of course, its a scam, but hey :)
A more reliable search takes me to cointracker which says you can get about $4 for that. Getting it certified will cost you about $50. So I would not do this. Give it an acetone/alcohol bath if you have touched it, and put it in some sort of protective enclosure. If you want to sell, put it aside and take a good amount of coins all at once to a coin swap or local club meeting or something.
