    EAC grade Good - 6. Commercial Grade VG. It's actually quite nice for a well circulated coin.

    I think it's a VG 10 kinda grade. The obverse rim goes weak but they weren't struck like American Eagles back then so some consideration is called for.

    Nice major die break may have played a role too.

    Research the die break?
