1) On the close ups I jacked the settings to make them stand out more.
2) The upper left are clearly MA reed marks
3) the reed marks are just used for size comparison.
4) This coin will be bought and sold as, hopefully AU, bullion which will hopefully go for a bit more than damaged.

IMO, that coin is going to be sold as an UNC at the going rate. The coin is not beat-up enough to be called damaged.
It's gold. It's big. It's heavy. It's relatively soft. Those marks seem fine.

This date and mintmark is common and generally comes nicer than this. Of course it is historic, but unless there was a significant price concession, it might not be worth buying or retaining this particular specimen.
melt?
While I want to stress that the thingie is historic and not bad as an artifact, yeah melt is about right.
I'm missing something due to my ignorance. Are you suggesting this coin should be melted as scrap or bought as far below melt (typical dealer offer) as you can?
Too many marks on the obverse image... will be genuine.... Cheers, RickO
Could go either way, but I think it would straight grade.

Looks like a straight grade coin to me.
it's a decent bullion piece. if it were a better date...it's totally a straight grade.
Common date with marks and scuffs, if you don't like it send it back..
