I have a 1944-P Jefferson nickel with a clipped planchet error. Do you think it would be worth it to have this coin graded? If so, which company would you recommend?

Also have a modern Roosevelt dime that is off-centered. The edge is not reeded in the 10-11 o'clock region. Same questions regarding this coin.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

No way on the nickel. No way. The dime is interesting but I doubt the cost of grading is worth it. Besides, it is obviously genuine, but a common AU coin.

The War Nickel has a minor clip, worth $3-5. I cannot really tell what is going on with the dime, a picture of rim would be helpful, but it is perfectly centered as far as I can tell. Your description sounds like a tilted partial collar strike which results in incomplete reeding, probably worth about $5 as well. Neither coin is worth getting slabbed, your fees would be many multiples of the coin values.

I have a 1960 Lincoln that has a more drastic clipped planchet and in pretty nice condition (~AU-55). Its sort of related to this so would you guys think I should get that graded? Or is grading those types of things not usually worth it?
