All great suggestions everyone. It is not magnetic and of course I need to pick up new batteries for my scale. The coin is not that grainy when physically viewed. Must be the way it's photographed.
Thanks

I looked at that known counterfeit on NGC, Marve, it is definitely not that particular one. The S looks right, look at the fact it has nice serifs, the counterfeit most definitely does not. What bothers me is the fact that this possible RPM has not been found up to now, back to Occam's razor.

Just out of curiosity, Babyc, do you own the coin or are looking at buying it?

Looks okay to me, but I am not an expert on these.
Errers and Varietys.

It looks "soapy" to me. I lean towards fake.

This looks to be a fake to me as well.
Soapy look as pointed out before. Lacks luster despite having little wear. Missing letters at the center reverse and the upper right obverse has that Class VI doubled die type of extra thickness that a lot of fakes have.

Still a neat example of a fake SLQ! |

That is a coarse, bubbly, cast looking fake!!! Yikes, reminds me of the craigslist ad I saw about 4 years ago, there was a pile of those things.
