I'm at AU50 on this one but the dullness of the coin is leaning me to state that the coin was cleaned at some point and therefore would pull a details grade

I'm thinking that it was once cleaned as well, but not recently.

AU-50. If it has been cleaned, it's an old one and not very serious.

I don't like the surface too much, is that corrosion? Maybe just the pictures. I'd say high EF/ low AU.
