    Howdy and welcome. The coin is a VG8 in my opinion and has not been cleaned.

    It is not Fine, it is VG8. It doesn't look cleaned.

    It's a high good or low VG , fine used to be defined as a full liberty , this one maybe has one letter . Still a nice original coin.

    Rim damage depeds upon what type of damage and the severity.

    That's pretty severe rim damage , so it would probably get a details grade by a tpg . A detailed coin can lose more than 50% of it's value again depending on the severity .
