The date portion of the coin is AG while the rest of the obverse is G-VG and the reverse is G. Worth no more than AG money as there is no reason to be generous with grading when buying coins.
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
Full G04 details with minor circulation damage that is a little too much for a full G04 price.
1855-S used to be considered a key date in the series, but its appeal has faded and it's just considered a slightly better date by collectors now. That is, unless you find a nice AU or Unc., in which case you're really onto something.
AG3 details. A G4 should have full rims. Now I have seen the reverse granted some slack when the obverse is all there, but the rims are incomplete on the obverse which is the most important for grading.

Full rim= Good
Partial rim = About Good*
BTW I use old school grading for old coins.

But wouldn't surprise me to see it in a G04 holder, happens quite often.

I can't see the g6 at all.
