1965 Large bead proof

Post by KEN66 » Sun Mar 31, 2019 12:37 pm

My question is this a Canadian cent large bead? If so would it be worth sending it in to be graded? Do I leave the coin in the mint cello or remove it to be sent in? Thank you.

There are NO post-1960 coins that are worth going to a TPG. The cost to certify, in almost every case, costs more than the coin can/will ever be worth, regardless the grade.

Thank you. I thought that it was scarce because it was in a mint cello. Thats the only one I found in a mint cello with a large bead. Is this coin considered a proof?

Both Large and Small Bead varieties came in the Cello Packs.
Not considered a Proof, they are known as Proof-Like.
As Bill says, not worth sending out. The cost of getting it graded
far exceeds the value of the coin.
