From what I've gathered the obverse is typically weak and shallow cut. Using the reverse for grading I will venture a guess at F+? Interesting token a lot of unanswered questions about its origin and usage. For those who are interested: http://www.coins.nd.edu/ColCoin/Col...b.intro.html

Very interesting. It was cherrypicked out of a world coin junk box.

Thought to be one of the only tokens (beside the Pitt "Halfpenny") to have circulated in the American Colonies.
My friend finds US Colonials in World coin lots often.
Fairly nice example. Seems corrosion free.
Good for you!
I'm in at F15.

Not sure on value. Any other suggestions pertaining to that subject?

This would not make a righteous slab. Details, scratches. I would bet it could get between $150-$200.
