A few rim dings, but a full liberty and kernels show nicely on the cob on the reverse...I give it a VF-25+

How would you grade it?
Thanks in advance

With these pictures I would say VF 35; it could possibly be XF 40 IMHO but I think clearer pictures would be in order.

Very nice coin!

Here...should stop using the image optimizer on CCF, never seem to get them right

anyways, with this better pictures, I notice dings on the obverse, on the stars at 7 and 2 o'clock, and as well just above the "B" in liberty

VF30/35 looks about right on this nice Liberty nickel.
