You definitely get better pictures with the coin out of the holder! Otherwise, you get reflections from the plastic and it's harder to get a sharp focus.
Your coin appears to grade AU-50 or so, maybe even a notch higher. It has quite a bit of luster. I would need larger, sharper photos to be more confident but I think I can see slight wear on the shield and breast (obverse) and the edge of the wing (reverse). I don't notice any obvious sign of improper cleaning. Looks like a nice one!
