THINK THIS ONE IS WORTH SENDING TO NGC ???

I think it should be sent to me!

I wasnt aware of a Concord commemerative....I need to look into this.

Concord is a very special place for me...this is a coin I need to own now.

 

Thanks for posting...not sure if its worthy of grading, but I now have to have one of these for non-monetary reasons.

Just from looking at those pictures, I don't see anything worth submitting. Pictures sometimes don't show the coin properly. This coin would need to make MS64 to make it at all worthwhile.

Send it to NCS first. Looks like it had some bad smudges and someone tried to clean it . Could be the pics , but if NCS can conserve it , it might show the hairlines better and then they would holder it . If hairlines/cleaning does not show up , they would forward it to NGC for grading on your behalf if you note it on the submission form.

I had one that I knew was whizzed and had NCS conserve it for me and it looks way better now , although it was obviously cleaned and thus holdered in the NCS slab . It was one of my first commems , so I had it holdered to protect it as I do not intend to sell it , and it's worth is only sentimental .

 

In My Honest Opinion (IMHO) , I like it . I'm not too overly retentive in the lower region when it comes to early commems . I'm not as picky about commems that are over 80+ years old and would go the NCS route if it is a keeper , if not , then Ebay it as is to save the conservation/grading fees .

Looks to me like the coin suffered an old cleaning. If you want it slabbed, I'd send it to NCS and ask them to conserve it. There's an option for NGC to slab it following conservation, and I think you can choose that NCS slab it if it can't be slabbed by NGC for problems.

 

One of my favorite commem designs.
