Good looking original coin with a few minor scratches. I'd say she grades EF-40 IMHO.

Take Care

I'll have to agree with shatsi at VF-30.

I'd want just a bit more clasp and shield details for an EF obverse. The reverse may well make EF.

Dramatic toning!

Also a VF30 vote. Yet there's something about this coin that transcends the average grade ... it looks "unmolested"! That's a major rarity among the remaining specimens. It's gotten so bad they should create a separate category for original coins. That's a keeper!
