According to coinsandcanada.com, you have the scarcer large 6 variety which is the more valuable of the two types. As to grade, probably a VG-8 at best to my eyes

Nice high rim so the weakness is probably more from the strike and less wear. VG-10, maybe F-12.

Obverse is F12, Reverse is a little lower - VG8 maybe? Nice coin over all - decent eye appeal and yes, that's the rarer of the two.

@Silver101 ... Agreed. The Obverse is practically fine but the net grade is still held to VG.

Nice old date!
