I stink at these, but will venture EF-40.

photos are a little small and the lighting may be altering the surfaces but this coin could be as high as AU55. I think you should post new photos in natural light and use the optimizer to enlarge it so we can give a more accurate grade

Better pics will help. In the EF-AU range for sure.

Best to take the coin out of the album when you shoot photos. There seems to be some glare from the plastic slide.

I see a high vf coin, but it may be that the weakness in the reverse wreath is due to the bad strike commonly found on these hard nickel coins.
