<p>[QUOTE="Joshua Lemons, post: 24810331, member: 82388"]First, you have to determine if a coin is worth sending in for grading. Most will say unless the coin is worth at least $100, it's not. Grading is expensive as well. For instance, my last economy submission of world coins totaled to a hair under $300 for 11 coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you are only interested in photos and your jeweler friend can do them, that would be fine. If you are sending coins to be graded, adding photography services further increases the grading fee per coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm an NGC member, I pay the yearly fee and submit coins myself. I've never gone through a dealer and feel I never will. </p><p><br /></p><p>A lot of the specifics though would be better answered if we had an idea of the kind of coins you were interested in submitting, plus photos. Most modern stuff is really not worth grading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
