Could someone tell me if this coin is a pointed leaves or round leaves and the grade. I hope I'am not asking to many questions. Thank you.

Round leaves. The details look to be VF-30 maybe even EF-40, but the coin looks like it has a rough finish and would lower the value to probably VF-20 value.

I agree with TerryT's answer.

I would add that the 'rough finish' could be possible mild corrosion or may be just the result of a photoshop picture enhancement (hard to tell though).

Round Leaves, VF20, surface looks pitted - most likely corrosion

I would argue that the technical grade would be at least EF-40. Too bad the photo isn't clearer. Check the obverse crown; the band is complete and all the jewels and pearls appear to be there, not worn off at all, and the pearls running up the middle still appear to be separate, a sure sign it is barely worn. There are still details on the medallions of the sash, although the blurry photo doesn't help.
On the reverse, even the smaller veins of the leaves are all still very clear, and there is little overall wear.
Too bad about the surface condition.
