I'm thinking VG at best.
Errers and Varietys.

I'm in Camp VG also.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

I agree with adam - a solid VG10 straight grade. I don't think the obverse scratches are enough to detail it.

A choice VG10. Right on the border of fine.

Add me to the VG-10 camp. Old cleaning, market acceptable. If the scratches on the cheek are seen as graffiti, the coin could be detailed. To me, they look more like old cleaning scratches or a countertop scruff (sliding the coin across a counter to pay a tab). I think this straight grades.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
