There is what looks like a mint mark on it and there should not be any. Have you checked it with a magnet? John1

21's always look worse than they actually are because of the terrible problem with strong strikes for that high relief design element.
It looks 40, but I wouldn't be surprised with a 45 or 50, either.
One thing I won't say is if it's been cleaned or not, because I really can't tell from this photo. Talk about a coin with a terrible cleaning problem, so many '21's have been dipped and cleaned it's terrible.
Finding one without that and with a strong strike and WITHOUT ugly toning is a challenge.

XF-40. Not a bad key-date example
