    Sure, if it dosnt show signs of being cleaned. I cant tell from the photo. I think any key date coin is worthy of a slab and authentication.

    I would get this in a slab, even if just for authentication. The nick in the field doesn't bother me much in the context of a low MS coin.

    Edit: Piggyback onto someone else's submission if you only have the one coin, if possible, or shipping and handling will make for an expensive submission.

    It looks circulated to me. In that condition, it is worth as much raw and save the fees.

    If that's mint luster we're seeing,i would get it authenticated/graded.

    "Two things are infinite: human stupidity and the universe; and I'm not sure about the universe."
    -Albert Einstein-

    Mistakes are natural. But repeated mistakes without reflection are something else. That may be the “stupidity” he was referring to. In research, he admitted uncertainty openly. “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?” This shows humility. Even a Nobel laureate accepted doubt. That humility makes the quote less cynical and more observational.

    Always a good idea to get those graded/authenticated if there's room for the submission fees. Lots of 'S' mint coins with the 'S' removed floating around out there.

    Its worth the cert. its a key date. I dont see any rub. Looks MS to me. With the hits on the neck I would say its MS62 maybe 62+ long shot 63.

    It is a little difficult to assess the surfaces from the photos, looks MS to me. I don't think 63 is out of the realm of possibility. Have you verified which of the 4 die pairs it was struck from? Check here.

    for the cost of $30 grade, you get a coin worth between $300 and $700

    To be honest with you I have no idea what you mean by 4 die pairs it was struck from

    In 1928, the Philadelphia mint only struck coins from four separate die pairs. You can use the identifying characteristics of the die (aka die markers) to authenticate your coin. For example, the 1928 that I own was struck from die pair #3 (VAM 3) and is confirmed by the small die scratch in the hair and a slightly doubled R.
    Since there were only 4 obverse dies used it's fairly straight forward to confirm that this isn't a 1928-S with the S removed, it must posses the known characteristics of one of the four dies. Check out the link in my previous post.

    All 1928 peace silver deserves to be graded! The only single exception is a coin that has been super cleaned/whizzed or one that has been altered from a 1923.

    Nice coin, nicer that many I've seen in that date.

    Yes, if is not a MS coin, it's pretty darn close. Look at it this way, its almost 100 years old, and what is the future of coins (or currency) in the 21st century? ...If that does not move you, it's a coin minted based on it's intrinsic metal content.

    There is no chance that coin is uncirculated. Are you all clicking on the image to make it larger?

    Lots of hits does not equal anything more than a lot of hits. Rub is a completely different issue. I can't say I see any rub. It could be a very low ms grade without being AU or less. I think it has more of a chance being cleaned than AU or less grade. It's worth a shot. Just my opinion, of course :)

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Actually, no I wasn't... Still looks MS although low, might be a chance it is AU, difficult to tell from pictures really. Take a look at some of the 62's out there, some look a lot like this.

    Thank you for educating me to the die pairs, it took me a while to figure out where to look using a 20x stereo but there it was #3.

    No problem, it's what we are all here for. Glad you were able to confirm it! Do you have any more pictures, maybe with a different light?

    This is EXACTLY the kind of coin that should be encapsulated on an economy submission. Once graded all the debate goes by the wayside if you or your heirs ever want to sell it. Without encapsulation it will always be a guessing game.

    Gather 4 additional coins together and send them in.

    If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.

    MS62, yes I'd grade it. I'd dip it first, but that's just me.

    I see it as an au58 and unless graded that is what most dealers would offer you for it.

    I'd slab it, think it would straight grade at 61/62.

    It looks MS to me, 62 or so.
    Technically probably a 55+/58 but those coins are now 62.
    So it's a 62.
