Thought I posted this, but it didn't show up. I hope this isn't a double post. If it is, I apologize.

This is a 1988 RDV-006 that I posted earlier today in the error coin section. I'd appreciate any insight as to grade, and if grade actually matters on an error coin like this.

Thanks!

Generally, for most modern-modern cents, MS grade matters when it's above MS 66...which this coin is not.

Id grade the coin from top AU to MS 60...with details

- (what looks like) fingerprint on obverse
- rim dings
- bag marks
- corrosion

AU58 to as high as MS61. Generally coins look a lot better in hand, I've been blown away by coins like this grading much higher than the photos that portray it.
Rest in Peace

AU58

However, I've seen the TPG's grade coins like this from 61-63.
