<p>[QUOTE="toned_morgan, post: 4540694, member: 97258"]Welcome to the hobby! This coin isn't in the best shape it could be, and I would say it is around VG08, making it a low value coin. Although everyone is saying not to grade it, it depends on what you want out of it. If you want to resell it and make a profit, then don't grade it. If you want to resell it and you're ok with losing money, you could grade it but you should still resell it raw. If you want memories out of it, you could keep it raw, but I would grade it, just to keep the coin safe and to be able to remember your grandpa with a coin that is kept safe and will always stay in the same condition. It does seem that you want it for memories, so I would say spend the money to keep the memories. NGC is usually cheaper than PCGS, and ANACS is even cheaper. I would stay with PCGS or NGC because they have the best experience at keeping super valuable coins in their same condition.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
