Trade Dollar opinion on possible rim damage grade?

Hey everyone! New posting member here, and I need some feedback, please. I came across this 1877-S trade dollar, and noticed the reverse had a rim small indention. I was looking for some feedback if anyone things this would be worth my while to send in for submission grading, or is the rim possibly going so set me up for a 'Rim Damage' reject. Any advise/feedback would be greatly appreciated!! FYI, the location I am asking about is above the "STATES" on the reverse.

    I have a feeling it would "DETAILS" (No Grade) as well, Rim Damage Code 98 - "excessive or heavy rim dings"

  • Thank you sincerely, for the feedback. Its an absolute shame as well, Because I just realized its also a DDR FS-802.

    Don't worry about the DDR; the 802 is not hard to find.

    Rim damage.

    It wouldn't make a bad coin for a budget type coin album set. It probably isn't going to be worth enough in a "genuine" holder to justify the cost of slabbing. Unfortunately, because it is a Trade Dollar, a heavily counterfeited type, not being slabbed will be a negative.

    All glory is fleeting.

    @nauticamark....Welcome aboard.... Too bad about the rim ding... I agree, will likely get a 'genuine' label...Try the BST here to sell it and buy another....Will make a good album coin for another collector. Cheers, RickO
