Should I Get This $1 Gold Coin Graded And How Much Is It Worth

Ex jewellery says it all .
Question why people are so fascinated by
and insistent on making the graders rich .
The piece shown is strictly bullion.

I wouldn't bother getting it graded.

coins must be presented as follows for proper assessment

1. remove coin from holder
2. crop photos so that the coin itself fills the view finder




I've been asking this for years. I don't get it. all they are doing is making the TPG's wealthy

idk12345678 consider the following:

two reasons to slab
1. its a rare coin that needs authenticated and preserved
2. you are planning on selling the coin and the cost of acquisition plus the grading fee's would warrant it without chewing up all your profit

PCGS charges a minimum of $69 for a subscription other subscription levels include grading vouchers though so you could reduce these costs. add to the subscription cost, per coin grading cost which I think for this one might be $23, shipping & ins both ways (1-4 coins is $27 if the total value is under $1000)

NGC - economy grading tier is $23, plus $10 handling fee, plus $28 for shipping (1-5 coins).

ANACS grading would be $16 but there's a 5 coin minimum. Shipping would be $29-35.

a repaired coin like this, unless rare, has very little, if any, numismatic value

No reason at all to have it graded. It's only worth melt and has no numismatic premium at all, so you'd actually be losing money.
