It looks like it has an oily film all over it. Definitely UNC as far as wear, but hard to see because of the reflections from the oil/coating.

I'd say MS 62 BN, but it looks as if someone sprayed hairspray on it or lacquered it as DEVLEC suggested above.

I like the ICCS blanket designation of "MS-60, lacquered". Basically it's UNC but the surface alteration makes it unnecessary to assign an accurate numerical grade based on the coin surfaces, kind of like "details" on a US TPG slab.

A little off topic, but if one was to find a lacquered coin, should one de-lacquer it? Or just leave it be?

If it's already lacquered, leave it alone. Once air gets to the surface, it will start oxidizing and losing its "red"
