It looks like a VF35 to me.

At least choice VF, perhaps a solid EF but I couldn't make that call unless I got a better view of the wheat ears.

I see pretty good ear detail but I can't discern the amout of rub from the scan. I also see a hit on the "C" in CENT and possible rim hit at 9 o'clock...I'd call it XF. Leo

I like it... it is perfect for an album. a choice reddish brown example that is as near uncirculated as one will find. It still has some original color, excellent detail and even if it's not worth getting slabbed, it's a good specimen that most collectors would love to have in their whitman folder.

I'll go on a limb here and say xf45
if you pay to get it graded, At least send 99 more so you can get bulk rate

edit to add:

I'm practicing my writing skills more than my grading skills.

Thanks all for the wisdom. It's not my coin but I didn't feel right just giving my opinion since it's my mother in laws coin. Now I can blame you all.
