Anyone got an idea on this coin?
It looks heavily used, but from examples I saw on the net it still looks rather "nice". (perhaps VF-/F+ ?)

I was also wondering about the rim at the top (1st picture)
It looks like a possible error to me maybe?

Any information is welcome

In my opinion it seems like a VG-F coin. The reason I feel it is not a VF is because for a VF coin all major features need to be sharp. But this coin seems to be having a loss of major details.
