Picked this pretty coin up from a local flea market and I'm hoping to hear what you guys have to say about it. I still haven't mastered coin photography, so needless to say, the coin looks better in person.

I'd put it at UNC Details due to what appears to be a cleaning and/or smoothing evident in the hairlines across the coin, especially near the base of the design on the right side of the obverse.

@keith12, how would you go about getting better photos? My phone doesn't seem to want to focus if I get too close to the coin, so I simply tried to take an OK photo from several different angles and lightings.

Cleaned - for sure, Unc - difficult to tell given small and incorrectly oriented pics. Please preview your photos before posting!

Given that it's likely a details coin, is it worth sending in to NGC?

Only if you want to sell it.
It'd look fine in a type set or a 7070 album if you plan to keep it.
