<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sshafer11, post: 1935424, member: 67540&quot;]I&#039;m not an expert on SLQs but judging by the pictures, it seems like there are quite a few hairlines all going in the same direction. Did you say your a metal detectorist? I&#039;m guessing you gave this coin a rub after you dug it? Unfortunately it won&#039;t come back with a numeric grade, but will be put into a details label holder. At least the details holder guarantees the coin is genuine but I don&#039;t know if it would significantly effect the value. </p><p><br /></p><p>Generally you do need to go through a dealer unless you purchase a membership to either NGC or PCGS. The membership includes direct submission as well as usually a few &quot;free&quot; gradings. If all your looking to do is grade one coin, it&#039;s probably best to just find a dealer who will send it for you. When you factor in shipping and insurance it will be at least $50 to grade it, plus anything the dealer charges for consignment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
