Looks normal but you can't judge the seal by looking at the head of the valve.
To judge the seal you can pour gasoline into the combustion chamber and see how long it takes for the gas to leak past the valves. At any rate, those valves don't look bad enough to cause the complete lack of compression that you say was in that hole.Ed
To measure is to know.

So put new rings in it, have the cylinders honed and reinstall. How did the cylinder wall look? Got any pics of that? It's definately not firing on that cylinder and if you had little to no compression then you are losing it somewhere. Thru the rings seems like a logical place.
