It looks like environmental damage rather than repaired surfaces. The entire obverse looks like it has ED and that area between the forearm and knee is funky. I would say it was sitting at the bottom of the ocean except the reverse looks fine.

it isn't a surface issue..it is a die clash.

AU details. Die clash for sure. May be some evidence of old ED in right obverse field, which may have been the reason for cleaning.

If it is a cast counterfeit, different (accurate) weight and ping tone should expose it.

Smalldawg and Sel, This is NOT a counterfeit coin. I sent it in to PCGS and my previous post says that they graded it AU details - Environmental damage.

It seems that members are forgetting to actually read the whole thread before responding.  Anyway, this is not a fake. I have a feeling that your photography makes coins look slightly worse than they are. Just a suggestion. Edited by SilverDollar2017

I never thought of it as a counterfeit coin; I still agree with moxking.
Nevertheless for those who have thoughts that it may be a counterfeit, I have suggested the first convenient and inexpensive steps that may be taken to check it out for that possibility.
