  It looks like it could be an EF-AU.
  
  But scans are among the most difficult of images to 'grade' from. Images in general are no substitute for the coin in hand.
  
  Has it any lustre left?

  At least EF, I think. It might be a little better (low AU) but I can't really tell for sure from this image.

  I scanned at 200dpi
  
  The coin is actually toned and has a nice reddish/yellow shimmer to it. I wish I could relay that image to you guys but my skills are lacking. In hand it looks xf to me but I am a novice grader.
