My instinct says VF-35, but I suppose these days it makes 40.
Rest in Peace

I have no way of knowing if your photo represents actual surfaces color ...

Wear is VF35/XF40 range - nice original coin.

The brown tint of the seller's photos masked the scr on the reverse and lessened the linear toning streak. But these are minor and I like the color from your photos. VF38

Using definition on CCF and price from the unmentionable sales site it just barely makes a VF20. No grains on reverse and I don't consider that a "bold" or "Sharp" LIBERTY, sorry. That may be a bit over-priced, I'll toss an F-15 at it. A nice example nonetheless, good original coin that don't usually come in bulk lots...believe me!
