Nice looking coin, but the reverse rims from 2-6 o'clock look suspect.

@ smalldog59....
Whatcha mean look suspect? Counterfeit? I found the branch mint pdf's from Bill Bugart but none for Philly mint. I wanted to check it out. Only thing I could find was a tiny bit of info the die clashes on the '58p. And the fact it passes on the Sigma. I suppose I could count the reeds to make sure. But it looks to me the rim is unevenly spaced due to wear. Could also be angle I took photo as well.

frog....looks like a seam in the rim between the denticles and the edge. Maybe filed rims on the left reverse.

Looks OK to me. I'd grade it XF-45, with original surfaces. The various contact marks are not too distracting. Nice type coin!

@jayyk31 Looking closer, the strike on the reverse seems to cause what I am seeing. The rims are wider at the bottom than the top. So, most likely an original coin.

I found a couple at Heritage Auctions with the same diagnostic. This SLHD is original.

Looks like original skin. Beautiful patina.
