Here's my 1907-S Quarter.
There's some green spots that might degrade it on the reverse. Besides that my unexperienced guess is somewhere between EF45 - AU50.
I paid 80$.

The first two pictures are with the light from the camera, the other two are with a yellow 40W table light.

Edit: I'll add some pictures taken with just the daylight as lightsource. I'm not 100% saticfied with how the details are showed in these pictures. Also I think the coin has abit more lustre. Anyhow hope this will be helpful

I don't quite seen an AU coin here. I am not a barber expert and I am surprised more have not chimed in on this. What I do see are some surface issues in the form of carbon spotting that would land this as an environmental problem category.

The wear on the coin suggests a possible EF grading but with some dollars taken off FMV due to the surface issues.

Remember with our hobby, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you're happy with it than so be it. At some point, and with the experience of handling more coins, you may switch over to problem free ownership in lower grades versus problem coins in a higher/less wear presentation. It will come to you with time.
