<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2083716, member: 1765&quot;]I&#039;ve heard other people outside the hobby questioning if having a coin graded is wise or safe. &quot;What if my coin gets switched?&quot; is a common concern.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There should be no such concern with doing this.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t want to go through a dealer to send the coin to one of the aforementioned grading services (I would also go with PCGS, but that&#039;s just me), you can send the coin yourself, but you may have to pay a fee to join.&nbsp; When you submit it through a member dealer, if they screw up your submission, the grading service may take action against them, which they don&#039;t want.&nbsp; If a grading service were to swap coins, the publicity would be ruinous for them.&nbsp; These services are among the most respected names in the industry and have handled billions of $ worth of coins since starting up.&nbsp; Getting that dime graded may cost you $100 or so now, but it is the best thing you can do right now to preserve the coin and ensure that it is easily sold in the future. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I dare say everyone on this list would have that coin in the mail (registered mail for this kind of value) this afternoon or tomorrow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
