I'm with you coinfrog. The same basic questions can be easily resolved with some research.

Very nice with a lot of history. It's not worth grading because they can't identify it. I have a token and sent it in. NGC sent it back.

List it yourself with tokencatalog.com.

I like it. It has the look of a declining country. There is a plainness with few details. A real sign of the time.

It would appear to be KM# 144.2. However you didn't mention the diameter, weight, or edge lettering. Also did you check to see if it is silver and it's purity.

You don't need so many pictures. Many graded coins have been cracked out of their slabs and resubmitted. If you believe it was graded improperly give it try.

If it raised it may be a die chip. If it is down in the metal it is a post mint damaged coin.

I had never seen those before. Really nice group. I checked eBay. Sellers are very proud of them but rarely ever sell them.

I think they would sell best with an auction house. Make sure they are reputable and specialize in coins.

Definitely looks like a partial collar strike. Don't quit your day job. Worth a few bucks. Nice keeper.

But some 2x2 coin holders at Hobby lobby to protect it.

Costco Gold. Fact Or Fiction?

The gold at Costco is a very good deal. If you have an executive membership you will earn 2% back. They only take Visa. Most either get cash back or airline miles. When I bought it was priced 40-60 dollars above spot.
It was shipped UPS overnight. Price includes delivery.
I also bought Canadian silver maple leafs. They looked like factory defects although they tested out fine.
