That's a really nice coin

I'd say F-15 or VF-20, although I'm not use to grading this type of coin.

I'd like to say VF-25 - the obverse rim does hold it back .... A C-8 variety?

C8 variety, Manley State 2 maybe? I'd say very close to a VF20 but by EAC grading standards I'd give this one a F12+ due to cleaning and rim bumps.

Thanks for all the comments!
The reverse does appear to have been cleaned at some point, obverse is harder to tell.
Even at a consensus F-15 or so, was it worth $79.?

VF20 but the damage in the obverse field in front of the bust and rim damage net this to VG10 for me.
