This is my first time here hello everyone =) so.. My friends stepdad gave me this coin and I'm curious on if its real or not. the condition of the face side is suspicious. the tail side looks very slightly concave. I dont know much about coins so any help is greatly appreciated. if it was real what could it be worth?
Thanks.

It's difficult to tell from your picture. Take another picture of the coin by it's self.

You could proabably do better in hand. I am not familiar with all the different fake dies but I would have a look in the various fake databases that are available in our sticky threads at the top of the List.
I would check out here as well...

IMO looks like a cast copy.

I agree.
If you look at the very bottom of the large reverse picture, you will see what looks like a casting edge, directly below the inverted 'Y'.
