I have several rolls of the new Washington Presidential dollar. I'd love to get them graded and encapsulated? Where do I go for this service and is it expensive?

go to www.pcgs.com. The are the most reputable grading service around. But, you have to be a member of the collectors club to use them, or go to a pcgs dealer (info on website) It will cost a minimum of $18 per coin to grade. Check out ebay for pricing because they are selling them on ebay now. Using a cheap grading service will cost you, so don't cut corners. NGC is the other top tier grading company. Hope this helps.

Unless you are a dealer and are going to sell the coins, the cost of having them graded is to high for the average person. Besides they will be high grade anyway and you can bet there will be thousands, if not a million or so minted. Most modern coins that have been professionally graded sell for less than it cost to grade them. The prices have been dropping, for there are thousands out there of the same coin in the same grade. To much supply and not enough of demand. You may want to go through them or have some one that knows grading, like a coin club member to cherry pick the nice ones and have them graded.
