Picked it up at a coin show last Sunday, mostly on a whim. Sorry about the bad pics - don't own a real camera. lol

Hard to see the detail in your picture. But looks VF-30 and polished from the way it shines

It looks heavily polished in the images. The details for VF at least and maybe better.

It is very important to be able to identify polished coins and is fairly easy when comparing a polished piece to one with "normal" patina.

Here's an 1883 Seated dime that is uncleaned/unpolished:

It's definitely cleaned/polished. But the details in the head, wheat, leaves looks a lot better than VF to me, I was thinking AU55 minimum. Got it for $20 so not a huge risk.
