27 grams and it's supossed to weigh 27.2 grams, so it's close enough there. It's a common date that looks like a cleaned VF+ worth about $80 if genuine.

The obverse and reverse pairing is good, a mismatch is usually the first sign of a fake. Overall, it looks good to me although probably priced a little high considering it has been harshly cleaned. However, the seller is at least asking a somewhat reasonable price instead of the typical CL seller fantasy price

Fakes of these can often be detected by testing for poor silver alloy.
A comparison ring tone test with a known genuine coin as a reference may reveal it this one is a fake or no.

The olive branch is making me suspicious, however the resolution on those photos is too low to tell.

There are way too many counterfeits of that coin to risk it. I wouldn't take it.
