Possible counterfeit, we would need better photos to be sure.

I have to agree with IGE. Something doesn't look right.

The lips and chin look to be more rounded than the actual coin. Also the numerals on the date appear to be too large and thick. A better photo (without shadows) taken directly above the coin would really help.

Definite counterfeit. The obverse wear doesn't match the reverse wear.

Counterfeit for sure.
Mismatched reverse/obverse wear and date.
