@joo, you seem to be concerned about the grade of this lovely coin rather than wanting to discuss an error or variety so I'm going to move your thread to the appropriate subforum.

Also, please remember to flatten the staples on your 2x2s so that they don't accidently scratch an adjacent coin in your collection.

Joonho, welcome! This is a really cool coin! From these photos I struggle to be confident in my assessments, but I am thinking EF details. I think this coin has been cleaned and the obverse, between 6 and 4 o'clock, looks scratched. You asked about monetary value--with "details" coins, it is a bit more difficult to sell them in general, and it depends on the severity of the problems. I trust the more experienced numismatists in this forum to give you a better answer for that I could.

Appears genuine with VF/XF Details. The severe cleaning borders on damage where it's been scratched in a couple locations. I would guesstimate it around $800 retail value.

Rough XF Details is accurate for this piece. Circulated problem classic head fives are common and I usually tag a general price of $800 on each.

Likely cleaned - I suggest VF/XF details.

I'm not knowledgable enough to comment on authenticity

I'll say EF details, cleaned.

Not sure on the authenticity though.
