These two coins may be worth grading. I'm not sure they would be worth the bother. So, what do you think? There is some light toning.

Coin 2

    For it to be worth it they’d have to grade 66+/67 or higher.

    Don’t think they’ll make it. I’m thinking 63 or 64 tops.

    I love the Kennedy halves!!

    I think your assessment is spot on.

    They are good looking coins worth keeping, just not worth slabbing.

    Love these Bicentennial coins....I have the complete 1976-S proof dcam set silver+clad graded by PCGS. Unfortunately most in the set are not worth more than 25-30 dollars but the proofs are beauties and a cool one year type set.

    Hmmm... One could argue that they are a two year type set - 1975 and 1976.

    Same dates on the coins, though. :D

    Found another in my batch. Probably the same grade, 63 or 64. Lightly toned.

    I think it likely will 63. Still a nice coin. Verrrrrrrrry underrated as is the entire series.

    Thanks for the pic. Looks like the kind of shop where I could possibly find something I didn't know I needed.
