Found in bottom of junk bin at coin store. I was surprised it had so much detail. Is this a good score? Is it full bands or nah?

To me this appears to be a FSB coin, but I'm no expert. It's a shame the rim has damage, other than that it's a great coin!

The rim? How about the neck! I'll say not FSB.

I'm not sure but I think FSB only applies to MS coins.

As I Said, I'm no expert, but as far as the FSB compared to PCGS examples they look right in the ballpark. The coin is far to damaged to have any real value, but it would definitely be a keeper for me.
