Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 10/19/2022 09:43 am If it is the big DDR thats awesome and it may grade a 62RB. I don't think it deserves that but they can be generous with rare varieties. P.S. no coin you find in change or roll hunting is a 67+.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 10/19/2022 11:24 am Please show the Reverse in order to see if it is FS-801. According with the Observe be happy if you will be attribute 62 which I do not believe. I do not believe you has the DDR FS-801 with the Observe design of the bronze coin.

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 10/19/2022 2:22 pm I have heard it said on this forum many times that unless a coin is worth 150.00, the you won't come out ahead due to grading costs. If you like losing money, ignore the rest of this Consider the grading companies (TPGs) are businesses: 1. Ask yourself why a business exists. 2. TPGs record/publish how many of the highest graded slabs, let's call them "money-slabs," they have assigned. 3. The less money-slabs assigned a specific coin increases the market price people pay to own one. 4. Therefore more and more people pay the companies to slab their coins hoping for a money-slab. BTW: 5. The invention of online registry set competitions has boosted the prices of slabs considerably - another genius marketing idea. B/c TPG's use no verifiable scientific standards for grading, cracking out a coin and resubmitting (even to the same company) means different grades can/do result. Hence the company's profitable "re-slabbing game" exists with people re-submitting and hoping for a money-grade slab. If you just like collecting slabs for what they are, then go for it and enjoy the slabs/hobby (including registry sets)! How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

JTCC Pillar of the Community United States 797 Posts	Posted 10/19/2022 3:32 pm please provide the image of the reverse, too. One thing I can say is that this coin would not grade MS-67, some traces of light circulation can be observed.. I say AU-58. Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 10/19/2022 3:35 pm No need to hold your coins when photographing them. Lay them on a hard surface and photograph them from above. Always show us both sides of your coin, especially when you declare it to be a DDR. You didn't even show us the reverse, Report this Post to the Staff
