Anyone care to give some input gradewise on my Ellis Island dollar I have been carrying as a pocket piece for a few years now.

Fun coin - I'm going low VF range.

Given the reverse rim, I'd be hard-pressed to give it more than G-04.

I would grade this F-12. I love when people use moderns as pocket pieces because you never see them worn like this. I'm partial to this one too because it's my birth year.

Would have been better to make an Ellis Island penny for a pocket piece. A penny in a bezel OK on a key ring. Be careful: a costume failure may be the result with this coin.
That is why the Australian crown size Five Shillings coin was such a complete circulation failure.
F-12.

You're wearing the reverse down nicely. They would probably bb the obv with the scratches in the In God We Trust area

Pretty nice - I like the follow up on the progression of wear. (Nice coin too) I may have to get one at some point.
