I want to hear what my Coin Community experts believe this would be graded and if it's worthy of getting slabbed.

Here is a Photograde you can view:

This is from PCGS. Coin nicks, scratches and somethings like holes and coin gouges will lower the grade. You coin has been cleaned so that also lowers the grade.

F-12, nice example but certainly not worth getting slabbed.

I agree with the others. Don't bother slabbing it as it would exceed over the coin's value.

Nice enough for a album but not nice enough for slabbing.

Going F-10, not enough meat on the bones, wheat feathers aren't defined at 50%, wear and cleaning kill it from any better. Barely hits 10 as is but with that 50% gets a Fine.
Rest in Peace

I would also say F-15. Not sure about cleaning. Color looks a little off.

It may just be lighting, but the color is a little off as noted above, especially on the reverse.

This coin should be fully chocolate brown. You can see traces of the original color around the rims and an area to the right of the date that was really scrubbed hard.

You you see a circulated coin this light and the old traces of brown around the devices (hard areas to clean), RUN AWAY!
