Newbie trying to understand the grading process. What is your best
guess at the grading of this coin? I hope pictures are good enough
for your guess. Thanks!

This photograph is better than the last one, in that it is a much
smaller
size. However, I must repeat that posting pictures to
rec.collecting.coins is not allowed. Obviously, you can ignore the
warning, but you will gain little respect and few friends by doing it.

Your coin appears to have the sharpness of at least an EF, maybe even an
AU, but beyond that, the image is so badly exposed that it is impossible
to tell anything more. If I had to guess, I'say that it has been
cleaned,
it has some rim damage on the reverse, and a stain of some kind on the
obverse. Any one of those problems would prevent it from getting into a
respected slab.
