It is a hard one, the reverse is in better condition than the obverse so I going to go with a split grade. The obverse VF-20, and the reverse EF-40.

I would give the overall grade of vf-30

I would concur with VF30, although the mottled color looks like the coin was cleaned at one time and then retoned.

I will agree with VF-30.
The clasp and drapery are very weak, but since the other details are consistent with VF+, I assume this is due to the strike.
(Is this a common issue with this date? I have an 1833 quarter, also in VF-30, with a weak reverse shield which is common for the date.)

I concur with a VF-30 grade. It looks like a good match for my 1834 example that PCGS recently graded VF-30.
The color looks OK to me. If it has been cleaned it doesn't show any obvious damage.

vf30 seems to fit. Can't tell about the color from the pics. Neat coin.  |

Thanks for all of the comments! Quite possibly cleaned in the past.

I think it's a nice looking coin either way.
Wear seems pretty even on both sides. Not quite sure if pic. or not
but on the rev. rim maybe unevenly worn around (comparing to the denticles. I bet it would grade EF-40

VF 30 and there is something about the color. I would hate to say but I would almost believe PCGS would put a VF 25 if it didnt get bodybagged.
