Dumb TPG question: when to submit?

<p>[QUOTE="Legacy, post: 2181185, member: 74530"]Sorry, I don't mean to be vague, I think my question was less about actual value or even the cost of grading, but more about the condition relative to the importance of the coin. Does that make any sense? I think "important" coins should be third party graded but the definition of "important" varies so widely from collector to collector. I'm inconsistent on the value to importance ratio! I would not send in a circulated common date Morgan as it's not an important piece but my 1893-S did go in. I did grade a 1795 (2 leaves) dollar that's only VG10 and thought that made sense. The 1799 dollar (R-5) is more common but comes from an important period of American history, plus there are counterfeits so I will send it in. It was my first coin dated in the 1700s and I bought it 25 years ago. Thanks as always for all your thoughts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
