EF details, cleaned. While it could be the lighting, I think the surfaces are a little too white for it to be consider as a market acceptable cleaning. Also all the dirt and gunk in the lettering and denticles suggest that it once had more and had been cleaned in some form to get it to the present state.

Looks like a die crack and the rim looks like the die was starting to crumble.

VF35 to me, later state die, cracks and rim Cuds forming.

Die chip in the date and a Cud forming on the base of Liberty's neck. The greenish gunk may have come from PVC contamination, and is causing some surface corrosion, though light, I'd soak this one in acetone to be sure the PVC is gone for good. Give this one a few hours or a day or two in the bath.
