Personally, I tend to think that everything should be certified, it it's worth enough to justify the expense. This goes double for key coins, such...
64 RD, but why would this coin have been submitted in the first place?
I was going to point out that you should hold it by the edges, but now I'm glad I didn't!
I think the coin looks fantastic, and I was planning to try to order one until I saw the price. The price is just too much over its bullion value...
AU50, probably cleaned long ago.
AU50. Lots of nice luster. I like the look.

Weimar White, and expert on coin chemistry, says that toning on a coin is like rust on a piece of iron. In other words, it's a form of damage. So,...
I love the Einstein quote. I carry about $10 or more in $2 bills and also find them handy to give as tips. My female barber says she still has all...

One of my first submissions was a really nice 1913-S Barber quarter, probably a G6 in today's grading. I sent it to ANACS because that's all there...

I would say the shadow is the result of a weak strike, not wear. Of course, without the reverse it's impossible to put a grade on this coin, but I...
Looks mighty fake to me!
I agree with kazuma78. I think it's either AU58 or brown unc. Those of you grading it VF need to check out the sharpness of the wheat stalks and...
By the way, I do think your coin looks better without all the green on it. However, it's still a dog, IMO.
Quick story. I once owned an 1864-L Indian cent that was badly corroded. Without all the corrosion, the cent was in a high grade, maybe XF or so....
64 or 65.
It's worth 1c.
