Worth sending in this coin ? Personally looking at it , I barely see the designer initials , pictures make it easier to tell. With floating roof , but the grade is what I am wondering , so please any idea

1. I can clearly see the initials and the sides of the roof, so it is neither a floating roof nor is it a no fg.

2. No FG and floating roofs are both very common die wear issues that generally don't add much if any premium anyway

3. This coin is in pretty unremarkable, mildly circulated condition.

Conclusion: will cost you $50 to grade a coin worth $.01

Thanks for your reply. Main reason I asked is there isn't many at a Ms 67 which sold at a good premium not long ago based off the grade alone

your coin has seen too much circulation to be MS, so AU-55 maybe

I'll say AU-58, definitely not worth grading fees.

Not worth sending in,I see the FG and both sides of the roof. It is a spender. As Bobby said,please crop photos before posting. Nice photos though.

I agree worthy of a 2x2 for being a spike head. The fingerprint by LIBERTY is unfortunate.

An AU coin at best, not mint state.

MS 67 is for all intents and purposes the best of the best when it comes to business strike coins. Anything above that is just god-tier. Only one in hundreds or maybe thousands of coins for a lot of years will even leave the mint in MS67 condition, so anything short of just stunning and flawless is not gonna make MS 67
