It's very important to have in the title. * * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by Jacuzzijohn 05/25/2023 05:04 am Report this Post to the Staff

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5673 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 05:43 am to CCF! It's actually a 1943-S, probably mid-AU, I'd say AU-55. Definitely not high enough value to consider grading it. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 05:50 am @jac, is your picture of the obverse true in color? If so then this coin has been plated.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 05:59 am I think Zurie's advice is correct. I also think mid AU Better to get grade opinions here with the coin of the potential value that is pictured here, those opinions are free, and truly third party. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 08:34 am Plated or not, this isn't worth more than bullion value, so not worth having graded. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 12:21 pm Melt value is $8.29 so I disagree that it only has bullion value. In mid-AU it's probably $25 or so. I agree it's not worth grading. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 3:06 pm Pretty nice Walker with clean fields and no major issues (can't tell luster from photos) Not really worth grading, even if it ended up AU58 full grade it's a sub $50 coin and it's going to cost you at least $30-$40 to grade it these days. Definitely worth more than melt. I personally tend not to submit anything for grading unless it's over $250, has something unique or superb about it (rare variety, spectacular toning), or if I think I'm going to sell it for at least that much and getting it graded will maximize profit.

CoinEnthusiast Valued Member United States 485 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 4:48 pm Worth a bit more than melt in my eyes. Probably AU-55. Report this Post to the Staff
