I was wondering if this is worth slabbing?

    A very nice Canadian one cent! However, IMHO I really don't think you should send it in for grading. It is very hard at times to judge coins by an image so I am basing my judgment on the image and not the coin in hand. I see quite a bit of flatness on the high point of the coin. Not to mention I also see green spotting on the obverse at the base of the Queen's neck. That alone would keep it out of a slab.image

    Are you new to the forum? If so Welcome!! and I hope I could be some help!!!

    A pleasing example that would probably be better off in a nice Canadian Large cent coin album.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Do not slab that coin!

    Seriously, it looks like it grades VF. Value is about $25 Canadian or $15 US. It would cost about $16 US at PCGS (if they'll grade it with that green color).

    Keep it in a 2x2 and enjoy it!
