I will guess AG3 to G4 details, corroded. It would get body-bagged at a TPG or put in a Genuine holder. It would not be worth the fees to send it in. I have a Fugio cent that is similar condition. I paid a total of $100 in a Stacks auction! I think it was in the auction only because it was a more scarce variety. I cant recall which one. I will check later.

Yes thats a fair price. The Connecticut coppers have had an upsurge in price and interest since the John J. Ford collection was dispersed.
