Pusherhere New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 10/27/2023 04:01 am I have a 1989 proof set where the penny has a hole in the side of his head .I have pictures of it and it is still in the sealed plastic case .my question is is this worth sending in to get graded ? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15441 Posts	Posted 10/27/2023 06:11 am to the CCF I see a carbon spot, not a hole. It actually degrades the value of the coin so no, not worth the cost of grading. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
