Need concensus on this Armour coin... is it translucent?

I picked this up yesterday. I'm pretty certain it's translucent, as the light goes right through it unlike any of my other Armour's. I know there is huge demand for these in the scarce tones, but I want to make sure I'm right in calling it translucent before I list it on eBay and someone bids $100 for it.

Also, you think these are better off graded? I graded a 1960 Colavito and it came back a PSA 10, and a 60 Mantle that was a 9, which I'm thinking will increase the value significantly... this one is likely to be a PSA 8, possibly a 9 based on my knowledge of how they grade these things.

  • yes it is translucent.i would show light penetrating pic in your auction.i don't know if grading would increase value as he is not a hall of famer.although i do know there are some kueen collectors out there.i also don't know if this would increase its value but why not try.
