Was on the hunt again today and found what looked to be a good-condition circulated coin. I am including pictures with low light and high light photos. Coin weight is approximately 3.1g I appreciate all grade opinions. :)

Zac09,
Good is an actual grade, it would be G-4 on the Sheldon scale.
Your coin is much better than that. MS-63 seems a bit to high to me. Here is a link on learning to grade: https://www.pcgs.com/photograde/

the coin appears to be mid-AU not bad for a 50yr old coin in circulation. due to number minted the coin really has no value. if you want to find anything in circulation that has any value you might want to key on errors and/or varieties. there are quite a number of them you just need to do some searches on them

AU-53 but the large obverse scratch kills the coin.

Okay, the photo guide is helpful using the photo guide with my phone and computer. It looks higher quality than AU. Similar to the higher grades but with fewer scratches under magnification.

I'd say AU.
