Your pics show the coin is at least a 63 Red, imho, so if you spent $30 to certify/grade it, and you wanted to sell it, then you would have to sell for a minimum of $34.00 for its' value and to get your grading fee back. Of course, it [I][B]could [/B][/I]grade higher...and if it became the top pop then the sky's the limit. Don't hold your breath on that, though, that probability is a very low percentage. As has been mentioned, on the other hand, if it has heirloom status or belonged to a now deceased loved one, then getting it graded/slabbed to honor that person causes the coin to become priceless.
