Hello and good evening here is another coin I have in my collection that I am wondering if it would be worth grading. I have held on to most of my coins I have for the last 3 years and am ready to take next step if worth it to have it graded. Any feedback is good feedback back thank you

added 13 photos to the album: 1964 Roosevelt dime

Hello my name is Michelle and I am new to this group. I had found out about you guys through Great Collections and was told to post here to find out whether I should get these graded or not! Great collections told me that if I were to get them graded to let them know and they would be happy to auction them off I just want more opinions on what I should do as everyone knows grading isn't cheap. Any kind of feed back would be amazing as I am not sure if I am seeing this correctly or not as I believe they have some errors on them. I will start with my 1964 no mint mark full bands Roosevelt dime. I may post more then one posting for your help ! Thank you so much in advance

The coin is most likely not real. Phiily mint in 1886 were almost always struck very well. This coin was cast. As SSmith said you better check the weight and test on a sigma. It may not even be 90% Silver.

Hi there, not to discourage you or offend you, however something seems off about this one. Try weighing it and checking the diameter if you can–it should be 26.73 g ±1 g and 38.1 mm. Aside from that, 1886 is a very common Morgan (there were almost 20 million minted). If it were mint state/uncirculated, it could be worth grading however I am of the opinion that this one is probably XF. Probably not worth grading, but the doubling and what seem to be die Chips that you pointed out could be a VAM (one of many varieties on Morgans and Peace Dollars). That could add some value if it is a VAM. Check the weight if you can. Hope this helps!

I would not grade it. The lines are probably scratches or evidence from a past cleaning. 1964 is a common date and it is only worth about 5 bucks, which is why it is not worth paying the 40ish dollar grading fee.

Always take pictures of coin directly over the coin, not at an angle. I don't see any doubling. If it is doubling it's probably MD. The silver value makes that coin worth about $3.30 You might get $5.00 for it. Is it worth getting graded?... No.
