1932 Canada 5 Cent - Possible "Far 2" Variety. . . ? . . . maybe. . . 1 1

I seem to have a depth-perception problem.  I was running through some foreign coins and found this 1932 5iver.  I copied the description graphic below from the Saskatoon Coin Club. 

Any thoughts?

Correct, it is a Far Date. Nice find. 
I usually just go by the distance between the 3 and 2.   
If the distance is equal, it is a Near Date, if the 2 is closer to the 3, it is a Far Date.

The Saskatoon Coin Club is one of my favorite websites.

Nice find.

Q.A.  Better that than the stuff we've been seeing and reading about lately. 🤣

That is awesome!  It looks like a VF level grade, I don't think it has enough detail for EF.  Would it be worth grading?

Depends on whether you are looking to sell it or keep it.   
Sell- yes. Keep- no.

Distance between horizontal leaf-line and top of 2 seems much clearer and less ambiguous.

Why would they call the 2 that is farther away from the 3 the near variety and the nearer one the far variety 👈 👉 👆 👇🤪. Must be the distance from the leaf.

Correct, it is the distance from the leaf.   
This also applies to 1922, 1926, 1929, 1934 and 1936 years which had the Near Far varieties.

The coin is from my fathers' collection and he is selling his stuff off.  I doubt he would have any preference for a coin he probably got in change/roll.

As far as getting it graded...

Does the the coin look cleaned?

Would the rot make it "environmental/details"?

Which grading company will attribute it is "Far 2"

And finally. . . what would you all imagine the best grade it would get? 

PS: If I go the graded route, I will then have to ask a ton of other questions
