I would say VF30.
These are the guidelines I go by from J.A. Haxby's book
F- braid segments begin to merge together
VF- braid is clear but not sharp
EF- braid slightly worn but generally sharp and clear

agreed on the VF20 - the braid is not worn down to the cheek and appears as a braid.

David, maritime coins are graded a bit different than regular coins.

David, I just picked up a 1874 50 cent in high grade as part of a deal involving 52 coins.
soon I will divest myself of most or all NFL coins to concentrate on pure and true Canadian 1858-1936

At the very bottom the initial half is F-15. Impossible to go lower. Excellent chance for VF-20.

I would say VF details but I think the rim dings would result in a net grade of F-15 max.

F-12 maybe 15. The rim damage and facial nicks hurts value.
