To send in or not to send in? Grading Help Please!

CaliforniaGoldConn

While I am the owner of California Gold Connection, I'm not a coin buff...I generally just buy and sell items as is. I'm considering sending in 3 1904 Liberty Head Double Eagles in for grading, but if they don't grade very high, it's not really worth it.

I use PCGS's Photograde to compare, but don't know all the idiosyncrasies one looks for. If I could get some input on what this coin might grade, it would help me make the decision to send them in or not.

I'm new here, so thank you in advance for your help!

It will not grade high enough to warrant the fees, but hey, that seldom stops me.

That may not grade, all the lines in the fields especially right side are concerning.

_if all are of similar quality, I would save my money.

Thank you for the feedback...it's pretty much what I was seeing.

If you do not send them in, what will you do with them? Sell them raw or melt? Just curious.. Cheers, RickO

Just sell raw...I don't melt coins...
