    “Is this 69 Washington quarter worth grading”

    No.

    The cost of postage will exceed any premium value for that quarter.

    Welcome to the CU forums @Sassykassy7984.

    Cost to certify one modern coin:

    Grading fee: $16
    Coin Handling fee: $10
    Shipping/Insurance fee: $22
    Sub Total: $48

    Still need to add cost of mailing it....
    Total: $48 + your postage to mail

    Your coin has spent a lot of time in circulation and has no added value over face. Others have posted the costs associated with grading.

    @Sassykassy7984....No, it is not worth sending for grading. Judging from your question, it appears you are new to collecting and grading. I suggest you acquire a Redbook (available at most bookstores) and use that to classify your coins. You are also welcome to ask questions here, but it helps if you screen out the most obvious coins of little or no numismatic value. Good luck, have fun, and tell us about your coin interests. Cheers, RickO

    You don't see very many '69's that nice in circulation any longer (F+/VF-).

    I see nothing else that sets it apart.

    Would be a good start to a coin album. That's how many of us started!

    Aside from state quarters, no one really takes moderns out of circulation to fill up a coin album.

    Yes, I'll grade it for free and on-line... VF according to the pictures. Not worth the time and postage to send it in for "professional" grading/slabbing.

    Not really true. A lot of the Junior Numismatists in our club do it.
