I know uta pretty worn, but is it worth anything in this condition, or is it even authentic for that matter lol. I found it in a drawer at work today. Good find or spending money?

Lol, almost unidentifiable on the front. I think it's a really cool piece for a collector maybe, but nothing valuable unfortunately.

Now if it were in decent shape wouldn't have been worth much? Say if it was gradeable? Something over a 60 let's say

Wrong forum (this is the error and varieties forum). That said, great find for something found in circulation
Sadly not much monetary value, but certainly worth saving any 140 year old coin.
