I like it ... but then again I may be prejudiced.

I'd give this a VG-8 grade, original surfaces. It would be an F-12 if the obverse rims showed a bit stronger.

I would agree with VG-8. An acetone bath might bring show some more detail.

I like it also, looks like a honest coin. I am not good at grading circulated coins so I will leave that to everyone else

I really like these coins and I like the natural color that you have found this one in.

Im shopping for a couple of these myself, and they are not easy to find with good eye appeal in the mid grades, it appears you did well without knowing what you paid for it, but I like the coin.

From what I can see the LIBERTY is there, and the face looks fairly strong, so I'm leaning towards a VG10 possibly F12.

(It's tough to tell much reverse wing detail from your pictures).
