I think I made a mistake on this one. I spent $10.00 for it. I was hoping it was at least vg. I think I am just going to go for vf from now on for the old british coppers. What is it worth? about 4 or 5 dollars?
I'm treating this as an opportunity to practice grading, so please take this with a huge grain of salt, but I'd say VG for the obverse (considerable wear, high spots worn down) and G for the reverse (some of the legend is completely worn off).

Yes, I am doing the same. Trying to improve my grading, especially of world coins.
Detail is too worn for a VG to me. Direct currency change to GBP is a little steep, for that amount you should get at least a F grade as the 53 and 54 are very common.
