that looks like a seam around the edge, my guess is that it is an electrotype copy. Could also be cast, but the seam clinches it for me as a copy.

That seam screams electrotype as I first suspected. A real George Clinton halfpence is extremely rare and valuable. Likely in the range of $60K to $250K, not to say an electrotype isn't worth anything, they are still desirable but well under $1K and closer to $50 - $300 range.
