you did well at $8.00 but I would not grade them. Leave them as is smile.gif

 

I'd agree with Bruce... for sure your quarter, dime and nickel would only cameo, not dcam, due to their reverses, so you'd basically be p#ssing your money away on them... and unless the Ike and Kennedy were pr69dcam you'd have thrown your money away on them too.

They look like very worthy coins to me, but it's hard to imagine you recouping your costs after certification. On the other hand, if you just want them well-protected, then go for it!

 

By the day, GREAT images.

Actually, having them certified (and slabbed) gets that dust off the coin surfaces, so they actually present better. I have a whole pile of proof sets like this one and many have *spoon* in the mint packaging. Of course, on the other hand, we have all seen fingerprints magically appear when they get exposed to air... 893scratchchin-thumb.gif893whatthe.gif

He!! no!

PS. I agree with everyone else. It would be a waste of money having them graded when you can buy them already slabbed for less. Since grading them would just be a cr@p shoot of expectations, you could guarantee the results by buying them. Just be sure you buy the coin, not the plastic. Another consideration would be to try and find the individual coins all graded the same by NGC. Then, if you wanted, you could submit them for reholdering in the multi-coin holder. (I think!)
