Final question, would it be worth getting this coin graded? I have considered purchasing an NGC Membership as I have a handful of coins I would currently like to be graded.

As a rule of thumb we ( most Ancient coin collectors) do not like to have our coins stabbed unless they are ultra rare or in a very very good condition.

The only reason I can think of as to why this coin would need to be graded is to confirm authenticy.

If the decision is in favour of grading, send copies of all relevent information relating to the coin along with it, to assist in the full identification, so that authentication is easier.
