Please give this a grade and confirm or not that it's real.

Because I'm thinking about doing a TPG I'm showing these close-ups to accent some fine lines.

1) Does anyone feel that it would detail out by being called 'cleaned'?

2) In general do TPGs detail an old cleaning more than a more recent cleaning or the other way around?

I see that these lines are not over the entire obv. but primarily near the face/neck area.

Please answer these two questions in addition to the grade and realness opinions.

If this coin is real, it could be worth some decent $.

This is why I want to upload these last few close-up photos of the reverse: to get a more accurate grade from out there.

The left leaves are first followed by the right leaves:

I think it would detail more so due to environmental damage than due to cleaning.

It looks real to me but I am no expert.

Looks real and it's not a Newfoundland 5 cent,
it's a Canadian coin.

VF Details due to surface contamination, enviro damage and obverse scratches. Not an attractive example of this Semi Key Date .
