1/4 Rupee 1944, For Grading Please

The British India coinage is certainly a favorite. This is from the Bombay Mint, indicated by the dot below the British rose at the base of the reverse.

I would grade it a toned XF, the crown beads and hairlines are still separate, but the gouges on the face are going to reduce that a great deal. UNC examples of these are common, around $10 or less, so this is worth the melt value and not much more.
