AU53/AU55 these little guys are hard to grade from photographs I find, this one appears to have some light circulation and hopefully no details from a cleaning or the tiny scratch on the obverse above the left side of the star or the really tiny scratch around the reverse at 8:00 between the stars. I actually like the color of this example.

These are really difficult to grade. I'd say AU-50 on this one.

typically most wait 48hrs if you can

this is one of the tougher series to grade. the buttons are a key area. if you can learn to assess those you can come pretty close to the grade. the center diamond button is the one to key on and the roundness of the others. these coins did not fair well in circulation due to the poor design, metal and thinness of the planchets
