<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1367952, member: 31533"]I think, based on comments before on this forum that NGC and PCGS are the two to go to if you want to have a graded coin that holds it's value. That being said, you will probably want to have 5 coins to submit at one time, not one. The cost of doing just one will be a lot. You have to get the coin to the graders, and then they send it back registered mail. So that usually runs at least 22.00 for the mail one way. The grading for one coin is more than for 5 coins (per coin) and you will want to have US separate from World coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>Unless your 1954 S quarter is like a MS 69, I wouldn't do that just to get your feet wet.
