It looks like an MS coin with Full Head but also may have been cleaned. Maybe some other photos without so much lighting and we'll have abetter idea.

I agree but I don't own it yet. I'm afraid the lighting may be hiding something or its making it look like luster but its really cleaned

The lighting is probably hiding scratches, like the one from the E of united to the word oF.

I recognize the photography style and background, but not the coin. It's identical in technique and background to a 1917 Type 2 he just sold.

Edit: I found it; I was looking in Completed Listings. Honestly, with this kind of photography I wouldn't exceed AU money for it.

The fields look a little rough, which may suggest dies near the end of their working life.
Old dies certainly don't help, when it comes to sharp detail.
