It would be a good idea to check Google Images first for variations in style.

These coins was hammered so the problem is that every coin is different from the others. I've seen only 3-4 coins, all of them without holes, and their prices where somewhere around XF40-XF Details:70.000 usd and AU55:100.000-115.000 usd (ex https://auctions.stacksbowers.com/l...view/3-69UFM).

Opps... it looks like I missed this thread. Gold always tends to be harder to grade, and I have never seen this type of coin before, so I have absolutely no experience in this whatsoever, but I will still try.
The crowns above the eagle are quite worn, as are the eagle's feathers. Looking at the person's face, their eyebrows are gone, and the hair has few details left. Now, looking at the shoulder of your coin and the coin in the link, I noticed that yours has some waves in the clothes, but that is missing from the coin in the link. I am not sure if that is of any importance, but that is a difference. The eagle's feathers also look to be different sizes, and on the eagle's side, your coin does not seem to have dots between the words. But then again, the seven in the date is backwards, so maybe it is of a different variety?
Anyways, for the grade, I do not think this would made EF; I am thinking more around VF-20. And of course, it would get a Details grade. I am not sure what its value would be, but the holes would bring down the value a lot.

Dear Joseph, thank you for your detailed answer.
I hope more friends will answer and tell their opinion, so I would make a better picture about the grade and the price.

The coin was sended to PCGS and the grade is PCGS Genuine, AU Details Holed.
Last year, in CNG Inc Auction, one with grade Genuine XF Details Holed, sold for 37.500 USD without the fees.

Really too bad about those holes! Smart to get it graded. Now you know for sure that you have a small fortune there!
