Any of these coins can be authenticated to give them added value if you want to sell them some time. Your determining factor is whether or not you can recoup your grading fees should you plan on selling them. If you want to put together a real nice error collection, it is probably not a bad idea to have it authenticated.

None taken. Its a very cool error coin. Not saying you should sell it or get in graded. Just saying if it was authenticated and slabbed, they get a nice premium. Never seen one with both pieces. You can get both graded in a double slab, that would be neat. To me, it looks like the real deal but Im not an expert with errors. I point them all to Mike Diamond.
