I agree. Probably gold plated. Not really worth any premium (unless somebody just wanted to give you a buck or two for it as a curiosity). But...
Certainly there is some corrosion and scratches, but in this low a grade, coins sometimes get a "pass", and it might get a straight PO01 grade....
I've always thought the Mt. Argaeus reverses looked interesting. I suppose the many protrusions there represent trees? First time I saw that...
