Fast PCGS service and guess the grade

PCGS received my economy batch on 1/28. Based on recent discussions, I wasn't expecting to see these until at least March. They just shipped today. I guess David Hall likes me 
One of the coins I sent in was an 1825 Bust Half I bought as a 16 year old in 1982. My first "big coin splurge." Want to guess the grade? Before someone shouts BB, it did grade. Pics were taken in an Intercept Shield holder.

Nice coin.
Brian.
Mine's a harshly cleaned POS, though.

I have no idea what happened. Maybe mine got mixed up with someone important's submission! I guess Laura/Legend will get hers back in April now.
The coin has nice luster in the stars on the obverse and in the letters on the reverse. I honestly thought it had a 50/50 chance of getting BB'd for cleaning but have always heard they are a bit liberal on these old bust halves.

That's certainly the only way I could make an educated guess!

It graded PCGS XF45. I bought it as an XF in 1982 for $70. I remember referring to Photograde and it looked XF to me. Looks like I was right (at least according to PCGS
