No, the obverse scratches will prevent it from straight grading. Also, the green all over the coin will prevent it from straight grading.
A slab does not put a premium on a coin. For certain coins, the slab adds liquidity and a guarantee of authenticity. For this coin, there is no...
I don't know how much more clearly I can state it: if it was caused during the minting process, I don't consider it damage and thus consider it...
No, definitely not. This is a VF coin which is quite common. It's worth pretty much the gold value - very low numismatic premium on this one....
