Could this truly be a 40% silver Ike dollar? I weighed it and it weighs in at 24.4G
I know you cannot see it very well in the pictures, but it looks like someone took a 1976-S proof ike and beat it with a hammer. This would be a score if it is truly a 40%er, because I am only in the coin $1.

I would like to add, the edge has no reeding, just completely flat.
