Does this look good enough to place in my album as FB?

I pulled this out of an old box I had of Mercs and Roosies. Is it good enough to be labeled as FB in my album?

Edited to add: Think an acetone soak would help the smudge on the lower right reverse?

    Hard to tell from that photo.
    Really need a clear closeup of the middle band.
    Acetone may remove it, depends on what it is.

    Other than a ding or two it is still open all the way. Not a value coin, just to fill a space in the album. The scuffs in the micro pic do not show up with the eye only. Inhand it appears to be a lustrous middle grade BU but not.

    The bands look pretty full from here. Though as Greenstang said, a sharper photo is needed for a definitive answer.

    From the close up I’d say no.
    From the first photo I’d say underexposed.

    Looks pretty full to me, at least sufficient for an album imo.

    If it would get a FB designation from our hosts ? Can't say for certain. But for an album, looks FB to me.
