Came with a Grellman card, always a nice find. Mr. Grellman the EAC Guru identified the coin as an EDS (Die State A) N-20 and was kind enough to provide a grade opinion.

How do you think it grades out? It's on an attractive light chocolate planchet, and looks to have not been excessively tampered with.

(Also, I've been trying to improve my photography )

I'll say VF30, but Bob's tough and possibly graded it lower.

In regards to your photography, personally I like the last photos with the grade the best. Maybe zoom/crop. I can see the details very well even though it's not zoomed out.
