It appears to be a very weak strike. Someone must of liked it for north of $150.

The face looks a little funny, but the reverse looks ok. I'll say it's real. Maybe the experts will nail it.

I see nothing wrong with it.

I think the photography and lighting is making it look a little odd.

What do you see that makes you think it is fake? It looks fine to me.

If I had $150 to consider disposable I would throw it hard at this coin, looking for that magical MS66 which propels it into the top tier for the year. If the coin is Mint State and original surfaces, it has a shot. Gambler's coin for the jump from $400 in 65 to $2000 in 66.

It's a beauty for a 35 and looks totally genuine. Nice frosty MS-65 in my book.

luster is a little off (as most Peace $s), and the strike is a bit weak (back of head/bonnet), but those 2 things could be the pic

the reverse top left has some 'funniness'

then again, what do I know? lol ..... I say MS 64

Looks real, just a weak strike. I would say MS65.
