When you consider that getting a coin graded can cost you as much as $30-$40 per coin, I would think that as a general rule the minimum value of...
No it would not, but spooning would.
Ahhhhhhhh, he knows better than anybody else.
That's always possible, but before you just ditch it you might want to send the pics to Daniel Sedwick and ask him - http://www.sedwickcoins.com/...
I agree, I'd wait a while, crack it and send it in again. Or even try NGC. I see nothing wrong with the color of that coin.
