Except for key dates all cleaned coins are hole fillers, every other years bullion value.

Would grade this coin at least EF to bad about the cleaning IMO it is still worth at least $150.00.

High enough in grade that it would likely fetch about $65 on ebay despite the cleaning.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

I pay more for a cleaned coin I can see and appreciate, than for a black coin I can't.(depends how it's cleaned of course) Looks like yours was cleaned a little too aggressively, but still above BV in my books

A problem coin is always what it is, buy the best grade you can afford, in this case try selling this coin openly as a cleaned coin.
