Coin looks genuine, but I suspect that someone tooled it a little to make the portrait stand out a little.

On closer look I don't see any tooling marks, the coin might need to soak in olive oil a bit longer and maybe the legend will show up better. The bust and reverse detail are nice, no visible legend. I'd say $25-$35 tops.

I look at wildwind and didnt find it(it is pius).
I dig it and just clean it with olive oil. Do you know value of it?

With more cleaning the coin will show some nice details. I would say around $50.00
