<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 3944966, member: 5233&quot;]I tend to agree with this.&nbsp; The TPGs do often give grade bumps to key coins...but from what I have seen that if often limited to THE&nbsp; key coin of the series.&nbsp; The 1877 is the big dog when it comes to IHCs...not the 1909-S.&nbsp; Yes, its desirable and a key date...but its not the coin people flock to.&nbsp; So, I feel less confident this coin will benefit in that way.&nbsp; It&#039;s certainly not an AU.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin, IMHO, is a solid VF.&nbsp; I could see it coming back VF35BN.&nbsp; If that makes it work sending in for grading to you...then do it.&nbsp; If not, then don&#039;t.&nbsp; Yes, there is a gouge on the reverse that they could call damage and give you a details grade.&nbsp; I&#039;m not sold that will happen, but it&#039;s a risk. </p><p><br /></p><p>If it was my coin, I&#039;d probably leave it as is...but that&#039;s just me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
