For wear alone I agree with the grade of Fine but the dirt is likely hiding corrosion. The raised rim on the reverse shows telltale signs of bronze corrosion. There is a scratch (old and toned) on the queen's face and a possible drag mark behind Britannia.
The value and electability of common copper coins such as this rely heavily on intact surfaces and natural uniform color. I do not think it would sell particularly well above a dollar.
