None. It's an inanimate object.

[Peter]

A nice example that has done its work.

But as Pies stated it has circulated...I love the 2 busts

[Coinery]

I like it because it's better balanced than most I've seen in that grade! Artistically speaking, it's rather appealing!

It's an inanimate object

.....me too

I won't grade it...How do you grade hammered? It is a very nice coin.Each one a one off.I would love it.

[ski]

Agreed Peter, hammered is harder in My eyes to grade and i personally like it to/too/two and even twa (twa is scottish for 2 Peck) Thought i'd throw all the too' in so Peck can take his pick which is correct. Covered all the bases now

I would pay around NVF book price for it.The series is rare.

I had a poor Mary groat which I sold.Stupid high bids...I didn't mind
