what I dont understand is how it did not receive a details grade given the obvious rust spots on it lol

On another note, I do think Sullivan's prominence as an error coin dealer is rising. I think he has the potential to become another Fred Weinberg like figure in the error Coin World.

Technically I'm sure it IS Chinese... When was the last time you saw "made in America" on a box of nails

Keeping it in the slab is paramount for authenticity reasons but as mentioned, a grade is irrelevent and means nothing since this is not a coin.
This is a piece that is what one is willing to pay.

Cheapslabs has a few 'struck on fragment' items that are much cheaper -- $350, $400. The devices are not as apparent on these.

They are slabbed and are graded MS63. So that must be the standard grade for such items.

Not quite as cool as a pedigreed bolt ID'd as a nail, but lots cheaper. Still more than I'm willing to spend.
