I love this coin for some reason. I realize that it is not so popular as for the series, but what do you think it would grade? I notice a little rub in the fields of the reverse, but it has nice toning and is really satiny. What do you think?

If so, then MS64BN or MS65BN, depending upon what you mean by "rub in the fields" and how minor is the ding (lower left field next to the shield).
If you mean there is a slight break in the luster and the minor ding is very minor, then MS65BN.
If the ding is more significant and by rubbing you mean a significant break in luster, then MS64BN.
If by rubbing you mean wear, then sadly there is only one grade to assign, which is AU58, as there is no grade AU64BN or AU65BN, though I believe there should be.
Since I don't think you meant 'wear', then I would submit it and hope for an MS65BN, even if Krause list it at $35 in UNC, which I assume is MS60. An MS65 would easily be quadruple the value of an MS60, and it would likely be much more than that.
I think it would grade no lower then AU53, best guess is AU58 though on a good day could see 63 hard to say. Photo seems to hint at field rub in spots but it could just be the lighting. Great detail and nice original looking color and surfaces.

I wouldn't submit it unless you're fairly certain it could fetch 64. Based on the pics I'd say it might, maybe have a shot but, while that's an excellent pic, there are some things that I would need to see in hand to say for sure.
It's a great coin raw, and if it has that satiny luster that it seems to I wouldn't mind paying over Krause for it. Slabbed 64 it could probably easily double Krause.

Also, remember that even if it did have some rub on the high points, so too do a ton of PCGS/NGC world coins in higher MS holders. PCGS own grading guide allows for minor rub and/or cabinet friction up to the grade MS67.

Dan,
That is one very amazing coin that you have got there.

This is my Jersey. Not as nice as yours though. Nice coin.
