I'm from Europe and not quite versed in grading US coins, I would say this is Very Fine with some scratches, opinions?

I think your grading assessment is pretty close. Coin may have been cleaned, or wiped, at one time but may still be "market acceptable" —- even with the scratches.

Nice, rare and very collectible coin! Congrats!

Thanks @westernsky

Well, coin definitely did some traveling, but I don't mind, if only it could tell a story about its travels...
Rest in Peace

Technical Grade 30. Eye Appeal 6/10.

Nothing that would detail it. A true prize.

And hold coins by the edges so the oils on your skin will not transfer to the coin producing fingerprints on it's surfaces. That transfer of fingerprints will lower it's value

Thanks @moxking, that is solid grade, do you think Is it worth grading it officially? @westernsky mentioned it was cleaned, if I get VF details, cleaned than I don't think it's worth it...

Thanks @Mark1959 for remarks, I hold rare coins by the edges and put them in sleeves/capsules, those fingers are not mine but from the original founder of the coin, lucky , he bought it as 'bullion'...

A 71 CC 20 is worth grading in any condition. Thats a 5 figure coin if real, and has a lot of very good fakes out there.

Indeed - low mintage with a high price tag, that one should be graded!

NGC or PCGS immediately. Well worth grading, and I don't think it will detail.
