I agree with DEVLEC; scans are useless, particularly for MS coins.

That being said, this coin looks like a VF30 to me; mayyyyybe an EF40.

With all of the weak strikes, these are tough to grade, this could sit anywhere from a vf20 to ms60 depending on TPG. I think with the wear on the obverse leaves, it is probably in the vf30-ef40's range. I had an au50 from NGC with more wear on the jewels than you do. It took a lot of hunting to get a "fullish" band for this year. Some photos could be really nice.

VF30
That coin has been around the block a few times.

@coinfrog, there traditionaly is no VF25 in Canadian grading it's strictly American.

Yeah, scans don't really do a coin justice.

But, looks VF-30 ish.

VF30. If there wasn't the rim bump at 7 o'clock on the obverse then EF40 IMO.

vf? for me also
Question. Does "scan" literally mean putting a
coin on a scanner , closing the lid and pushing the button?

Since its my only internet access, I use my phone camera without flash. I don't know how good my pics are and know they could get a LOT better with lighting adjustment but typically the resolution is there.

Nikon D3200 , 18-55mm nikkor lens, and lots of practice with lighting.
Also a camera stand is a must. Most cell phones take decent pics also.http://goccf.com/f/81
is a good place to start.
