<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 906283, member: 11854&quot;]You can either drop the coin off with a friend who is a PCGS member or with a PCGS authorized dealer in your area or purchase a membership for yourself. If you drop it off with a friend you must keep in mind any insurance or liability issues should the coin &quot;disappear&quot; whereas you are not so likely to have those issues if you drop the coin off with a PCGS authorized dealer. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you give the coin to a PCGS authorized dealer expect to pay something like $30 for certification under the Regular tier or $50 under the Express tier. I would suggest certification under the Regular tier since the coin has a value quite near the cutoff for that tier. The dealer might also ask you for postage and might ding you for full postage even if he/she is sending other coins in, too. Total postage might come to $30 so that you would be into the coin for approximately $60 for grading and postage.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Alternatively, you can purchase a PCGS membership and I would suggest either the Gold ($129) or Platinum ($199) levels. The Gold level allows you to submit up to four coins for &quot;free&quot; while the Platinum level allows you to submit up to eight coins for &quot;free&quot;. Please note you must wait for your membership package to arrive and you will then also be on the hook for the entire postage cost. Also, you have to submit all four or all eight coins at the same grading tier and at one time to get them graded &quot;free&quot;. Otherwise, if you submit lets say one coin then that one coin will be graded &quot;free&quot; and in the future you would have to pay for other coins to be graded.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
