To grade or not to grade, is it worth the money?

    On my journey of coin roll searching, I’ve found this no mint mark, 1964 strong detail nickel with that unique finish I’ve never seen on another 1964 nickel. That reflective yet satin like finish. I’ve taken up close photos of me holding the coin in multi angles. Also has all 5 steps and deep square shaped walls. I’m considering getting it graded. What do u all think? image.jpg

    To me it’s not worth the cost to grade.

    Don’t hold your coins like that. Fingerprints never come off.

    Clear straight on, close-up pictures are needed to really see it properly. I will say though, there is no chance it is a sms nickel. Beyond the fact that if there is any such thing at all, they don't exist in circulation, rolls, accumulations, were never released to the public in any way, this coin was struck with a tilted die. If all were struck from the same dies and die setup that would rule it out right there. You have a reasonably nice normal1964 nickel, nothing more.

    I think that the influencer (Angelica) probably has 1-2 podcasts or runs 2-3 columns on the internet somewhere. For those folks who keep their nose stuck into their computer or cell phone, the article was written for you, and you probably believe it. Why would anyone believe that crapolla?
