The Obverse band has no real wear on it but something is not right.

It might have been in the ground for awhile because the surfaces don't look quite right.

It might have been dipped too long or too often.

My guess is EF40 or better ...but with a special notation added to it.......and I'm no expert at this...

I agree with DEVLEC on this one...

Something not quite right esp on obverse surface... perhaps a bit of corrosion in the past... or a very light polish...

VF-30 details... nice low mintage date for the George V series...

Take care, and Have a Great Weekend!
