Default Another coin question

I recently purchased 3 proof quarters. All of them are doubled die obverse.
They are dated
1961 (1) and 1962 (2) Should I have them graded prior to selling and what kind
of prices do they fetch?
I also just recieved a 1973 doubled die reverse quarter with the doubled wreath
on the right side. Coneca indicates there is only one sample...I think and I
was wondering what one would get for selling a circulated example. I would
think it would grade on the f-xf condition.
I got a 1934-s peace dollar doubled die obverse vam 3 at an auction the other
day, graded good-very good. Anything on the price of one of those? According to
Vam it has a rarity of 3 out of 5, whatever that means as it doesn't set a
price.
I just want to make sure I don't get ripped off when I sell these.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks much.

I'm having decent success finding doubled dies in circulation, anyone else
doing well at this? No major dd's but the minor dd's seem to be all over the
place, especially from the 70's through the 80's. I know the difference between
ejection doubling and worn dies also, so that's not what I'm wastin my time on.

Doubled die proofs? I think you'd definitely want them certified as such
before selling them. As to the price, I have no idea.
