Hello @CoinJockey73, thank you for contacting us. That's a really neat coin you have on your hands! Unfortunately, NGC can't really advise you on if your coins are worth sending in for grading. That is up to the individual and why you want them graded.  Some people have them graded with the intent just to sell the coins.  Others have them graded just because they want to protect them in the holder and don't really have any interest in selling them or the value of the coin.  If your intent is to sell them, then you'd want to compare the cost of joining and getting the coin graded versus what you could get for the coin raw.  You'd have to either check online to get an idea of what that type of coin sells for or have them appraised by a currency dealer. Kindly keep in mind that NGC does not buy, sell, or value coins in any way.
 
If you do decide to send the coins for grading, you will need to determine a declared value for each coin.  The value we ask you for is an insurance value, a number you would feel comfortable with in terms of a replacement value if your item was lost or damaged while with us. Each tier of service covers up to a maximum specified insurance level and you must choose a tier of service that will accommodate the declared value for your item.  Services and Fees | NGC
 
Please let us know if you need help with anything else. Thank you!

   Before you submit this excessively worn (Poor details) and damaged coin to any grading service, wouldn't it make sense to learn something about the differences between 1916 and 1917 Type 1 Standing Liberty quarters and satisfy yourself that it will likely be determined to be a 1916 first? The mintages of the 1916 and 1917 are 52,000 versus 8,740,000, so the odds that a random Philadelphia Type 1 Standing Liberty quarter is a 1916 are less than 0.06%.

  After just a few minutes of searching online, I found a YouTube video--a legitimate one, I think--that shows the diagnostics on side-by-side images of a dateless 1916 and a dateless 1917. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzRi-YXH2rs   The shield rivets on your coin appear to identify it definitively as a 1917, and Liberty's bottom hair strand and the folds on the bottom of her gown also appear to identify it as a 1917.  (The rectangles on the cabinets on each side of Liberty are also too well defined for a 1916, but they may have been strengthened by tooling.) 

 You are welcome to do additional research to come to our own conclusion.
