G-4 looks about right. You can check http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/ and get a good idea of the grade on most US coins.

What you might want to be worried about more is that it looks like it could be slightly bent. Check for that.

G-6 Details, appears to be a bit warped, not a bit unusual in this series.

I think you got your G-4.
I believe I would be more concerned about if its bent or not.

I believe the wearing of ATES OF AMERICA into the rim makes this coin an AG3. While "market grading" continues to change and, at times, upgrade a coin, I still grade by the "old standards" and the letters cannot be worn into the rim and get a G4 grade in my book. Sorry.

Thanks for the input everyone. I really need to curb my excitement sometime and investigate further and not jump in. The coin is not bent, and I gave 20 bucks for it. But I think these are tough to grade. And I didn't know they were so small, My son laughed at me and said you paid that for that little thing!
