I think it might be G4 due to the full rims. Just my opinion though.

G6 with some unfortunate residue left on the coin.

The rims are strong and I can make out L, T, and Y in LIBERTY. Generally just 3 letters are enough to qualify for VG. This one is maybe a bit marginal for VG but certainly deserves G-6. The reverse shows a bit of greenish residue that might indicate PVC corrosion is starting. If it were my coin I'd give it an acetone soak and rinse to hopefully prevent any continuing corrosion.
