I think it's an N-2, but not sure of the grade. Looks like some carbon spots and cleaning issues, but for $12 shipped, I liked the details enough to fill a hole until something better comes along.

I'm liking VF20. Left side of the reverse looks odd towards the denticles/rim, die issue? EAC grading is not something I'm deeply familiar with yet.

VF-35 cleaned. Too bad too because it looks like a decent coin. The spotting is due to the harsh cleaning. I'll double check the attribution when I get home. Unfortunately I've been put on the night shift so it'll be later tomorrow morning.

Thanks all, I like the VF part. That's what I was hoping for. Celtic, I can relate, I'm on the night shift now.

Help me understand how to spot cleaned coins. Is it just familiarization with what "normal" is, or are there some clues that I can look for to spot "cleaned"? thanks.
