Obverse slight MAD. Possibly a lamination issue... could be PMD.
Reverse may have some issues as well.
Tough to tell... better pictures will help others help you better.

Should a coin like this be graded, is it worth it?

@lenny Not worth the price of grading. PMD.

There are very few laminations that are worth slabbing. Most lams would fall under .50cents. The stain would take off value on this one.

NO and NO! A coin like that should be spent unless you are a "Lamination" collector, then it would only be worthy of a cardboard 2x2.
