It is a tough coin to be graded.
The obverse could be weakly struck.
Judged from the reverse that the stalk is slightly worn and the wheat lines are clearly defined, I say XF40 or XF45.

i agree this is a tough one as it appears that both sides are weakly struck. even in MS condition the coin probably would have looked like it had been circulated. I'm going with VF30 based on the rims and the left wheat stock detail

Reverse looks like an XF, Obverse looks like an F, I'd say maybe VF30 or 35

Obverse is a F-12 and reverse is a VF-20.

Net: F-15.

Not slabbed but I have graded this coin F-15. There is no cheek/jaw separation which removes it from VF. However, the reverse is solid for a VF25/30 coin. I've always wondered if a TPG would bend because the obverses of 1909's typically show a "flatness" to the cheek. But it's not worth the cost of grading so it stays raw in my collection.

Good decision, agree with your analysis.
