A quick look on ebay shows ms66 graded examples selling for well under $10. What do you feel this one would grade?
If you want it graded you should get it graded. I wouldn't but I'm not you.
My current registry sets:
20th Century Type Set
Virtual DANSCO 7070
Slabbed IHC set - Missing the Anacs Slabbed coins
Unless it's the specific coin you want graded, IMO, I would buy it graded....

Wow! The new guy jumps right in.
I agree. Let someone else pay the grading fees for a common coin.
New HERE, I'm more known on CoinTalk.... I'm not saying I'm very well know there though...

There appears to little upside to have it graded. It is your coin/your fee/ your choice.

If it has a cartwheel that won't let u look away have it graded
It's a nice looking coin. I'd have it graded. If you ever need to sell it or try to sell it it'll bring more money . That's only my opinion.
I agree with you if I have a graded it'll be my first coinI've had graded, the one coined the same year that looked just like it sold for $120 at auction , if I have a graded with PCGS which I think is more preferably for everybody most collectors then I think it's like a $50 membership before you can get a coin graded then you got to pay to get your coin graded or something like that not a whole lot of money there, what would be cool to put it in auction and I have three people that really want it
Financially speaking, the only upside would be if the coin went 67, you would lose on a 66. While the coin looks nice, I really couldn't venture to guess a grade from these photos, but I do see a good amount of chatter on Abe's face, and on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. Something else to consider is that only 19, out of 2.65 Billion, have gotten a 67 from PCGS.
