So would you recommend getting the 1921-S professionally graded, or would it not be worth the cost? I realize the question wasn't directed toward me, but I'll answer Even as an MS63, the coin would only be worth approximately $70, if certified. And, while, based on the images, I could see it as a possible 64, that would make it worth in the neighborhood of $100. All things considered, based on the grading fee and postage both ways, I believe that the odds are against it being economical to have the coin graded. That said, if you are able to show it to a knowledgeable coin person in-hand and he thinks it has a shot at an MS65, then it would merit grading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there a company/website/boardie you would recommend who sells a good quality coin holder at a fair price? Happy to try to help. Here is a good coin supplies company, but there are many low cost options for coin storage. Coin World also sells do-it-yourself slabs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any help in grading would be appreciated as I'm a complete novice to this type of collecting. As you know this coin is quite small so it did not scan very well. Thanks in advance!

I'll tell you first that it's a 5 cent coin (half dime) and not a half cent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
