I wanted to guess 68, but guessed 67 instead. Nice coin!
VG 10. Wear looks artificial (pocket piece?).
I voted no, but more that I think about it the more it makes sense. That, and it changed my position from 4 to 2. ;)
As a type collector, I would choose one of the the most common dates (i.,e. those that are sold at the lowest price). In the grades you talk...

TPG grade F-12, maybe a VG-10 because of the darkness of toning. My only real concern is what's going on in the right obverse field (scratch?)....

I have no idea, really, other than my gut feeling -- as I don't follow the prices of these coins closely enough to know and I'm too lazy to do...
