I had this coin graded and it's coming back encapsulated but aren't they supposed to tell you what's wrong with a coin. Or was I supposed to do that separately because on top it was cleaned at one point as well. And it looks damaged badly so I figured it was done after because it looks like scratches and dents. I thought they would check or should I just assume regular damage

Why did you send this coin in to get graded?

If you send for grad, they grad. They grad, they give you 92 because the coin was clean . If you want variety or error you has to ask and tell what you think it is. No one will made deep all possibilities for you. Grading do not mean deep analysis.

What do expect would happen if you resent it? Would you prefer the damage listed on the slab rather than the cleaning?

Generally, they list the most egregious item in the code. They also don't call out random circulation damage that is included in the expected wear and tear of lower grades. Sending it in again isn't going to change anything, it's just going to damage your bank account further.

It's a shame you spent hard-earned money gradineg a coin like this. With respect, I think you have a lot of studying to do before you try it again. Stay with us and show us possible submissions so we can help.

I will not send again this coin. You do not have any variety here.

As point for grading it is 1. market value, 2. building a hole type coins collection or 3. Special purpose of the coins.

Point 1. = minimum 150$ market value
Point 2. = All coins collection but never under 66+
Point 3. = Special coins which are part of a publication

Hope this will help you

I would add one more point, silviosi:

Point 4. = Coin is a family heirloom, has special meaning or has some other sentimental value and you want it preserved in something other than a 2X2 or airtite.

There must be a language barrier here.

What do you see about this coin that makes you believe it is worth the PCGS grading fees?

@Tjames99, The best thing you can do is to ask the experts here if you have found an error/variety coin and if they think you should have it graded. Even if a coin has an error or variety, it still may not be worth grading if the condition is poor. The folks here will tell you straight. Welcome!

Cleaned coin. Not a premium for this one. The grading cost more than the coin is worth. (You won't get anywhere near the price you paid for the grading) The lines on the reverse are Feeder Finger Damage. Not a plus for the coin.
