I'd say VF-35. The harsh lighting may be giving it a cleaned look, so it's hard to judge the originality of the surfaces.

EF-40, not enough hair curl separation over the ear for a 45.

XF40. too much light/glare to see surfaces properly. I think its hiding stuff. I'm betting this coin looks worse in hand and most likely cleaned enough to detail the coin. if you have the coin. retake the photos without overhead light or reduce glare. the obv fields appear to be banged up a little
