booyah! 
nice dime there. AU50 in all likelihood, possible 53, not sure it climbs to 55 without seeing how much luster is present under the toning.
The toning looks like it floats on the surface which is a good sign its natural but I am still trying to REALLY determine these aspects. What perplexes me is that I have not seen enough coins where the toning invades the relief as it does on the obverse here.
all around I am
and want this one!
edited to add that it seems to be an F-102a
