Even though it's a common one, I'd give it an acetone bath and try to kill the green that's on the reverse, bit on the lower neck of the obverse as well. I'd soak in acetone and roll over those areas with a qtip with acetone. If that doesn't work, then repeat with xylene.
I'm still between AU58 and MS62, leaning AU.

Thank you all for your quick answers. Awesome community here. I will get rid of the green on it as suggested for the coin to be more presentable. Your answers gives me a good idea with what I'm dealing with. AU 58 to MS 62. After a nice acetone bath to reveal it's full potential, it should be a bit easier to grade. I will post when it's done.

It's not perfect yet but it should clear things up.

I'm seeing black spots where the green was in previous images. ( Near ONE in ONE DOLLAR ) I think it is damaged. Green slime will do that.

I've had good luck with xylene improving (not always removing) any residual left over post acetone. I love my xylene!  New pics post acetone I'm leaning towards MS now. MS62

I will give it another final bath and see if I can remove those spots near "ONE". I'll post soon.

I gave it a final bath. It's a bit shinier but the spots near the "ONE" remains so it is most likely damaged at that particular area. I'll post the reverse only, the obverse did not change much except a little more brilliant.

Besides the hits on the neck, it's really nice.
