Interesting coin if it is fake. This one sure looks genuine to me. Natural wear and toning in protected areas. Color looks correct for silver, does it have the silver odor? Old silver coins have a distinctive smell.

with the previous replies. A nice circulated example that has probably been dipped.

Genuine looking wear and toning is probably more difficult to simulate than making a counterfeit.
