    Yes, but if they're about the same grade or not, either way, post a close up of both sides using cell phone like this: ( sub. books for jar, can, etc. )

    Hard to tell based on the photogs.......my advice is to put 'em in an album (Dansko?) and enjoy them in their raw state. Sending these babys off for grading is going to be a major cash outlay on your part

    They do look like nice album coins. They would need to grade MS-65 or probably 66 to even break even on the grading fees. It's been many years ago but I had a blast collecting these. In those days it was tough to get a clad in 65. I'm not sure what the standards are with the grading services today.

    When I enlarge the first picture I see marks on the surface. That will give you a lower grade. I wouldn't send them for grading. Not worth it IMHO.

    I'm not 100% sure, but I believe offers to buy and sell can only be made in the marketplace forum.

    From what I've seen at local shows, raw clad Ikes go from under $2 to $4 depending on how many one buys.

    Better than raw? Don't think so.

    The term raw refers to the coin not being graded and in a slab. All those Ike's are raw. I recommend moving your wares to the buy/sell section.

    I do live in a higher population density area and as such believe I have access to greater competition. That being said, I got 9 brown and 5 blue, in OGP, (original government packaging), less than two months ago for $8.25 and $8 each respectively. I was offered 4 1975 proof sets for $8 each yesterday and declined to buy them.

    I'm not a professional grader, but from the pictures posted, it appears to me that they're in a condition that renders them face value examples. As always, YMMV, (your mileage may vary). Best of luck, and please ensure you read the forum rules.

    Most of the Denver coins are widely available in Gem BU, but that doesn't mean one should just dismiss their value to other collectors. Many out there might pay $6-$8 to put one of those coins in their book, as long as the reverse looks as good as the obverse does.

    I agree. Shiny and big are easy to see

    Maybe 5 bucks just to sell quick.

    To have them graded would cost anywhere from $12-$28 each, depending on which company grades them.
