    They are nice but very common dates. You’d never recover the cost of grading so don’t do it.

    It almost never is.
    It either has to be rare or unusual and needs authentication,
    or very valuable.
    A well conditioned 1928 might warrant grading.

    Very nice looking common date Peace Dollars. Not worth the cost to grade.

    Good work asking this exact question before acting on anything. Most new to the hobby see graded coins and think that's what they're supposed to do with their raw coins. The reality is an extremely high percentage of coins have no business being graded. That's from a financial standpoint anyways as it's not worth the money. There are other reasons to have them certified if losing money isn't a worry.

    Until you're really good, if you want a coin in a certain grade level just buy one already graded there. Or buy raw coins from a reputable dealer with the intent to just keep them raw. Buying coins raw and trying to get them graded and come out ahead is a fool's errand for all but very experienced folks.

    Don’t grade them. But a nice start on an album of Peace dollars.
