Nice find. Obverse looks VG8 but the reverse is worn almost below G04. I'd say G06 overall. The '11-S is a very tough date in this series. Almost a key to me, most would call it a semi-key date.

Yeah, I call it a 'key' too, hard to get date.

G-6, very close to VG.

G-6, too! Also, when close-up, you can see in LIB there is a small amount of green stuff.

I agree, it looks to be G-6 but it's a very nice coin all the same. No noticeable damage just nice honest wear. A very nice find.

A little acetone bath might be in order.
