I agree with Frog, EF-45. Looking at the edge marks this one may have been used in jewelry.

Outside! Did you say outside? I hope you didn't say outside! Please please don't ever take pictures of your coins outside under any conditions.....sunlight, snow, rain, wind.. UV rays will hit that coins.... That's a bad thing!
Anyway, take a picture of it inside. We would like to see what it actually looks like. As close as you can get it to what it looks like in your hand.

Nice coin for that price. I too take many photos of coins outside. I'm to cheap to spend a lot of money on lighting just for coins. I'd rather spend that on the coins.

Ex-jewelry, perhaps. Looks like honest wear, EF-40.

I'm sure he doesn't take them under ANY conditions, just good ones. And don't worry about UV, coins don't get sunburns. (cancer maybe, but not from UV)

That's temperature extreme mixed with environment (think smog and other contamination) and humidity/PH.

Taking pictures of coins outside isn't necessarily bad.

They're coins not some space organism that has to be protected. They can go outside for pictures and be just fine and it will do absolutely nothing to them.
They didn't survive over a century by never being taken outside.....
You'll ruin your digital camera before the coins if you try and do stuff in rain ect.
