Very nice coin, almost makes F-12 IMO. There are no major surface issues and the eye appeal is great for a circulated coin, especially for an EAC.
Depends if that scratch is on the coin or on the slab. I think it's on the coin and they net graded it.
I think the coin in the OP probably has F details, but was silently net graded down to VG-10 for the long scratch. I don't really like when they do that, but they do it quite often.
