Sorry my pictures aren't the best quality but I'm almost positive this is a no FG...

The pictures are really bad, but I'm pretty sure I can at least see the G in the first picture.

I've been reading up on the 1972 D no FG and from what I've gathered, it's still considered a no FG as long as its not seen by the naked eye or by a 5x microscope?

But the G is barely visible once enhanced further by microscope or if majorly zoomed in on photos. I've also been looking on ebay at the Graded 1972 D with the no FG attributes but I can still slightly make out the FG once I zoom in on the photo on a fee of the listing.

I believe it is, but in this condition, can anyone give me an indication of whether I should have it Graded or not?

Not worth grading, especially in this condition. Also, I think that I see remnants of FG, so it may not be anything special. Better pictures would help.

The FG initials is still there. Not worth slabbing.

Again, I've seen several in ANACS holders that have the no FG label, yet I can still slightly see the FG once zoomed in on the picture. I've heard others opinions as well and I've had several agree with me. So, if I do grade it, I will send it to ANACS. I appreciate you guys and your input!

I think your first investment before coin grading should be a $10 phone scope so we can help you with your coin questions.

Why would you spend $50 to confirm that you have a coin worth $10?

& Because these are cherrypickers and worth a whole lot more than $10 and although I don't know the exact value just yet, it's worth grading from what I've been told by my most experienced friends on Facebook.

Wow, Facebook is the absolute worst place to listen to people. It's terrible.

This coin is not worth grading. Perios. I don't care what the FB people are telling you.
