Looking for opinions from everyone out there! I have this 1934-D Heavy Motto. It has a Unc Details Wrap Dmg Grade. I've been thinking of sending it in for reconsideration. Is it worth it? Its a beautiful coin, I don't think it deserves the details grade.

It won't look any different with a straight grade.
It has wrapping machine damage. It could slip through the cracks if resubmitted. I hope PCGS is more consistent than that.
Of course I'm gonna be biased towards a coin I own but It's not something that really detracts from the beauty of the coin. Besides, there's wrapping damaged coins that are far far worse which understandably doesn't straight grade.
You asked for opinions, why critique the opinion given? Just an observation...
If they detected what they thought was wrapping machine damage previously then they will likely detect it again. There is nothing that they can do to lessen or eliminate the damage. You like the coin very much, but it is what it is.

Send to NGC and see if you get anything different. I’ve coins accepted by one service and not the other. It went both ways.
I wouldn't buy that with a straight grade. Sure the damage isn't all the way around the coin, but it is there.
In other words, I wouldn't reconsider.

The damage is pretty easy to see. I’m guessing it would get a details grade every time.
