Upgrade it with  the lesser coins 50 per upgrade at your vale shrine
in with the ethereals , you should have 10 or so upgrades worth since 
frogs drop 1 each (more or less ??). Another reason to farm frogs.

Cast the 496, see if it is a better stat match for your current gear 
then vendor  , more gold. Normally you would save some for burden to 530 
gear later, send to appropriate alts banks ,but not much chance in the time.
Or just go all tourist :-)
