Please give me some opinions on this Franklin half, I have several in similar condition and am curious how a coin like this would grade.

Thanks

Yea, the surface does look a bit rough, possibly bad lighting, but I'll give it low AU. Is that a small die crack coming off the I in UNITED?

The luster does not seem to have a cartwheel pattern and the scratches seem to be out of line with the wear. I think they've been cleaned, so I'm going to say AU-Details.
