balakay123 New Member United States 30 Posts	Posted 05/15/2020 6:52 pm Hi, I have a 1958 Wheat penny BU and I was wondering what grade you think this coin would receive. Also, do you think it's worth sending in? Thanks in advance Edited by balakay123 05/15/2020 6:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff

gymcoachdon Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 05/15/2020 7:05 pm I'm gonna say MS63RD. I remember finding a lot of really nice 1958 cents when I started in the hobby. A lot of people saved them, probably knowing the design was changing the next year. Keep it until you find one nicer, no need to have it graded. Report this Post to the Staff
JGpenny Valued Member Canada 153 Posts	Posted 05/15/2020 7:07 pm I would only get this coin graded if you thought you could get MS-67. I don't see u getting that grade on this particular coin. Some slight rim knocks and other marking on obverse. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/15/2020 7:19 pm Lots of hits and scrapes, especially on the shoulder - MS-63RD tops. Value less than fifty cents. to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog 05/15/2020 7:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19202 Posts	Posted 05/15/2020 7:23 pm I'll agree with MS63, and the sentiment to not send it in. There are many, many high grade BU++ late 50s wheat cents which have been hoarded--with many of them having been slabbed. Report this Post to the Staff
