What would you grade this one? Sellers photos. For $3.50 I couldn't pass this one up.

This one arrived. Nicer than the sellers photos as I was hoping for. Looks like 3 1/2 diamonds.

I'm scrapping my first grade of XF40 I think there is enough there to make XF45. she cleaned up real nice and both sides are much sharper than the original photos.
