had won this at ebay.

http://www.ebay.ph/viItem?ItemId=13...540024#photo

since I am a novice I really can't tell if the coin is authentic or not.

the coins weight is 24.51 grams.

does the rim of this coin not silver?

what is original weight of this coin?

thank you very much!

if the original weight is 25g and I've got it now at 24.51 possibly then that the coin is authentic.
thanks graceoutcast.

The coin is original, it's hard to tell from the image but I wouldn't grade it as UNC looks like there is some wear on the inscription on the reverse along with some staining. It could just be the photo though. I'd grade it as AU. You got it for a good price.
