I would like it as G6
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
for a 211 year old coin-too bad soneone took the steel wool to it

None. Early copper collectors can be pretty forgiving but they do draw a line.
Make it a cool pocket piece. Lots of stories to tell when you show it.

Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

I would grade this coin VG10 net G4, Avg- or scudzy - a big knock-off for scratches but they are severe - really ruins the coin.
If new to copper - get a copy of CQR from Jack Robinson - he discusses grading. Also review the Goldberg Auctions as Grellman generally gives a technical/net grade.
The 1798 - kind of tough from pic - there are lots of varieties for that year
VF25/Net15 (corrosion?). Cannot tell what is going on below the bust.
solid VF details, and is not as abused as the half cent. Probably buried in the ground for at least
100 years.
On 1798, I toyed with VG10 net as well but could just not tell from the photos - doubt I would seriosly pay 15 money.
