<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3744436, member: 84179&quot;]A good generalization is that coins like this need to be in MS67 or better to even start thinking about grading.&nbsp; The problem is that it’s difficult for even long time collectors to consistently tell the subtle differences and nuances required to grade these ultra high levels.&nbsp; It takes a lot of experience looking at lots of coins to get a good feel for it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Another generalization is that most coins found in change already have enough contact marks from bagging and rolling and cash registers that they won’t make the high grades.&nbsp; You need to be looking at mint sets and even then, finding something good is like a needle in a haystack</p><p><br /></p><p>That’s why the deck is stacked against a new collector finding an ultra high grade condition rarity coin roll hunting. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your coin is a nice find and worth keeping in a 2x2, but it&#039;s well below the value where grading makes sense[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
