Zilliz81 Valued Member United States 138 Posts	Posted 03/06/2022 10:42 pm I'm thinking it's not worth grading due to the wear in the eagle chest and leg. XF? Report this Post to the Staff

smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2334 Posts	Posted 03/07/2022 06:23 am 3rd lowest mintage of the series...recent auction prices for EF-45 around $200. Should you send it in for grading...? Maybe not on her own...but if you have a batch to submit...would help spread out the cost of shipping and insurance. I like her at EF-45 Pretty coin and Thanks for sharing! smat Report this Post to the Staff

pristine2 Pillar of the Community United States 1048 Posts	Posted 03/07/2022 07:58 am Honestly I would have to say no. While it is pretty and desirable, I see a coin that has probably been cleaned -- these pics can't substitute for a scope and I could be wrong, but those surfaces don't look natural. The other reason I would keep it as is: while 38-Ds have a premium market because the objective mintage is low, they are in fact commonly available, so that premium never appreciates much. They were widely saved out of circulation. There are dozens of circulated 38-Ds listed on ebay at any given time. Edited by pristine2 03/07/2022 07:59 am Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/07/2022 08:52 am Might make AU-50. Not worth grading, but a nice example! Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18662 Posts	Posted 03/07/2022 10:19 am solid XF45 good shot at AU50 a little too much glare to determine surface originality. my initial thought was possibly lightly cleaned but I'm not sure enough to call that would I have it slabbed? no Report this Post to the Staff
RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 03/07/2022 12:38 pm AU-50 all day long. Nice coin, but I would not send it out unless you had a lot to send out as stated prior, to spread out the cost per coin for slabbing. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36741 Posts	Posted 03/10/2022 2:39 pm Problem free AU-53. Not worth the slabbing costs. Report this Post to the Staff
