[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 3213437, member: 78298"]You don't spend $30 grading a cent that is probably worth 1 cent. Even if it was worth a nickel, there's no market for it. Coins that are valuable are rare, old, the HIGHEST grades, or contain errors. Even if this is an MS coin, and it is most likely AU, these common modern Lincolns which were produced in massive quantities are not going to justify the cost of grading. OK if it was an MS 69 that's different. But you are not finding a 55 year old cent in MS 69 in circulation. Whoever said to have this coin graded is a hack. If you like the coin you put it in a 2x2 or an album. You'll know when you find a rare or high grade coin. A higher grade of this same coin is worth about 20 cents retail. People have the wrong idea about grading. Save that for coins worth hundreds of dollars or, a coin that needs to be certified as genuine.[/QUOTE]
