VF range, I'd say. These are all too often counterfeited (not saying this one is, as it looks okay) - have you weighed it to be safe?

Nice Maximilian! I would also say VF.

Fun fact: the Mexican mint sells proof replicas in .999 fine:

That weight's right where it should be (but you probably know that already). Given Maximilian's short reign and ignominius demise, I'm surprised so many of these survived as have. Still, a less common Mexican coin, and a good addition to any collection.
