EF or slightly better but an awful lot of corrosion particularly on the obverse.

Are there edge knocks too ?

Edges seem fine no chips or anything like that.

The rim om the obverse at around 2 o'clock seems uneven.

Nice detail, AU (American)... Obv indeed a little scuzzy - perhaps could be helped some by a "Blue Ribbon"/Coin Care type of product (I would avoid acetone for copper). Always going to be a bit dark, though.

PS - That rim area 2 o'clock obv just looks to be a bit of rim bleeding as made, no?

There is lustre showing, nice details, and not much overall wear. AU-55 for me.
