I was just wondering what you guys thought of this coin and what you might grade it.

The hole renders it ungradeable, and being a fairly common coin it has no value in that condition as you could purchase a similar one without a hole for a couple of bucks.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Is the obverse/reverse orientation up/up (medalic) or coinage where you rotate it on the x axis.

It is the more common version going up down not the matching sides

Probably F details, not worth much, but at least it's an example.

With the hole, it's a cull/hole filler.

I have sometimes polished holed coins up super shiny, and use them like spinners on a fishing line - highly polished coins catch the light nicely in the water.

That's actually a really good idea.
