Is this coin attracted to a magnet?
Have you weighed this coin?
Have you checked the diameter of this coin?

:eureka:
Have you seen this video?

Not attracted to magnet.
Weighs 3 Grams
Do not have a tool to measure with but it looks the same diameter as other wheat pennies.
Looks like die number 4 from the video.

Unless a coin is worth about 150.00 then grading it likely just pads the pockets of the grading companies. Your coin is not in good enough condition. Selling it would not bring you back enough of what your outlay was to get it slabbed.

It's not worth grading, value is around $50 to $70 and looks to have some small issue on the reverse.
