You're joking, right? It is stained, corroded, and encrusted which makes it completely ungradable.

Yeah, I'm joking. A little humor to set you up for your weekend. I just put the coin in water to soak overnight; curious to see if any of that crud comes off. Stay tuned.
Rest in Peace

Villa Rose, this looks like your first time asking about grading.
Great question.
CCF is devoted to help people learn. If you go to the left side of the page there are a number of sites.
This may help, http://www.coincommunity.com/us_coin_grading/

Just checking I was not so sure because we have actually had people ask for a grade on the equivalent of a dumpster fire

Oops. Sorry, bpoc1. I really am a serious collector and poster. I'm also a funny fellow. Well, I think I am, but as my wife tells me, people sometimes can't tell when I'm joking. Anyway, peace.
