I wouldn't be too disappointed with the grade opinions already expressed.
It seems that Barber series as a whole, saw very extensive circulation for a much longer period of time than most .

10 sounds good I don't think there's enough feathers on reverse to be f12
Rest in Peace

VG 10 the clincher is the wear on the reverse wings.

Thanks all. I purchased this from a LCS as a F-12. I missed some of the wear on the eagles right wing and shield until I got home and was looking at it again. Then I began to think the reverse might pull this one down to a VG-10, even though the obverse is a solid F-12 in my opinion.

VG-10. Reverse will hold it back from a 12.
