I am trying to get a grip on misc coins in the pile. This looks like it might grade F-15 possibly F-20 or so... any comments and what I missed? Thanks for the help in advance.

I don't think this would grade at all at PCGS... Might grade F-15 details/damaged/corroded.

It also looks to have environmental issues.

Yes, it sat in a can in my Grandfathers basement for about 50 years, with 6 others and various other metal objects. Wait till you see the 44 I will post soon. I don't collect these at all. I'm just trying to store them in an orderly manner for now, and I like putting the grade on the cardboard flips.

I really appreciate all your help. Realistic grading is best for everyone.

I agree with vermontensium's VF-20 grade.

VF details. A nice coin but for the damage and what might be a hint of corrosion on rev.

Another coin with a story to tell.
I'd go with F15- damaged
Rest in Peace
