Something seems a bit off about this coin... There is some corrosion consistent with a cast copy. Any thoughts?

Corroded, perhaps.
Cast copy, highly unlikely.Where did you ever hear of or see a cast modern copy of a common date 25ยข ?
Do you have the coin in hand zxcccxz?
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Common Date? Perhaps. But still trending at $500 in this condition which woukd make any seller a monstrous profit if it were a fake.

I was bidding on ebay but two bidders got carried away and the price ended up at $550 which is considerably more than I was willing to pay.

I have a Common Date US Draped Bust half in F that is a cast copy but made of silver, it has characteristics similar to this coin.
