can anyone tell me what type this coin is? I'd also like to know what grade it is. Looking forward to reading your opinions on this token. Also, what is that green one one side and how do I get it off, assuming I can do it without damaging the coin or even need to?

The photo/scan is not large or clear enough to tell you what variety that it may be. An acetone soak or bath may remove some of the green stuff (if it's soft/oily). Otherwise a hawthorn or rose thorn or a toothpick may be needed to get some of it off. If the green is hard and grainy, there may be discoloration or a pit underneath. Grade-wise, I'd say F-15

I agree with DEVLEC that it's a 771. The die cracks at leaves 6, 8, and 10 on a group P reverse are pretty sure signs even on a fuzzy photo.
