I bought this for $10.00 and was wondering what you all think the grade is.

Opinions on grade and value please...

I am not sure on the grade, but I think you got a heck of a dog gone good deal. I would have jumped on that for my type set.
Good catch

Great purchase!!

I see it as an F12. I would want to see more detail on the wing and tail to give it a higher grade. The head details are very nice. Both wingtips are clear. The surfaces look great!

2007 Red Book puts the value at $34. I think a more realistic value would be around $20. For some reason, these coins don't sell for as much in circulated grades as I would expect.
