I would hate to see this coin relegated to such a fate, it should be in the hands of a collector (for a reasonable price) who will appreciate it for what it is, a wonderful little piece of history. as for grading and standards, I would have to say that, I am a bit old fashioned in my grading and dont play into the more complicated aspects of later grading on minutia with number scales.
