If SGC does not grade this issue anymore, I know that PSA does. I have had several graded by them, and I think they are pretty accurate. As noted, they are not particularly rare, although they are scarce in high grade. What you have to watch out for with this issue is glue residue on the reverse, since they were designed to be pasted into scrapbooks. If there is residue, then the best you can hope for, grade-wise, is a 2. I wouldn't bother getting them graded, if this is the case. I do think they are neat, and are one of the more affordable 19th Century issues.
