Looks like a fairly solid VF coin , but needs better pictures!
Retake them under different light sources
Why don't you just show the whole slab and we can
discuss. I have had several that look like this that end up
ICCS VF20 or 30 holders or NGC or PCGS XF40 holders.

VF-30 is my guess. I think okiecoiner has it pegged though.

Im at EF40. Suspect it is in an NGC AU50 holder though.

I'm not a fan of TPG but especially outliers like ICG, assuming this a bona fide holder. It seems likely there is some major fakery (not the word I really want to use) goin on here.

Well, the initial ICG was put out of business just because of crapolla like the above. I think that the original was in Florida, but had heard that it grew feet again.

That's a recent slab.
If you look at ICG Vickies on ebay it seems as though a dartboard may be an important tool used for grading these coins.
