If you want it graded, you will have to post clear photos of both sides of the whole coin.
We cannot grade from blurry and partial photos. All the detail has to legible.

Thanks Jimmy D for the response. I actually took those picturies under my coin microscope and it was the best that I couuld do. Its not that the pictures are blurry it that the condition of the coin. I Barely caught those images because of the condition of the coin. I was just trying to get some feedback on at least from the pictures That were able to produce. The condition 0f the coin is the problem. the pictures are not blurred. Thats exactly how it looks on the coin even under the microscope. Thanks again for your input.

First

Close up shots like these do not work well when grading. Ideally, posting a clear shot of the entire obverse and reverse will work. The first picture may have worked if it wasn't blurry (guessing this is the image JimmyD is referring to). I'd recommend taking a look at a few other posts in the grading section to get an idea of how the photos should look.

I was not referring to the partial closeups, they are not any good for grading coins.
As Ty2020B pointed out, I was referring to the first picture. In order to grade a coin and
as I pointed out on my other post, a full clear picture of both sides of the coin is required.
We have to be able to see the detail and any marks the coin may have.

Appears to be a vise job, worth 1 cent.

I do not think this is worth getting graded. It appears that the coin has been cleaned improperly, - my guess is VF-details. :)

Agree with not worth grading. Lots of wear. You might want to check for double D or other varieties/errors, too.

Stay well,

@ coin obsessed & Diy89Nurm7 Thanks for your feedback I really appreciate it.&&Ive seen in the coin using the microscope that above liberty it looks like liberty was struck before or after the final strike and in other places on the coin especially on the obverse I can see other letters as if the lettering was struck on the coin before the final stike. I don't know if you can see what I mean in the partial shots I posted in the beginning. But I definitely see other letters and some type of doubling or first striking on the coin front and back.

I agree with the feeling that the coin isn't worth submitting for grading. In addition to the obverse issues, the wheat stalks on the reverse show a fair amount of wear--given the photos posted.
