There are fairly decent scratches and it looks like a bit of rim damage. I would pass unless it is DIRT cheap.

I can't tell completely from the pics but I wonder if those scratches could be some kind of die cracking due to what looks like raised areas along the scratch/crack in some spots. Also, the rim has some signs of die deterioration/possible Cud formation which can create some cool havoc elsewhere on a coin, at times. I'm no expert just a thought...

1914 is a common date. I would pass and look for a problem free example.

Scratches, rim damage, possible environmental damage (corrosion), with VF details. Worth maybe $8. I'd pass even at that price.

Okay...Then it looks "real"?
It feels wrong in hand. Almost feels light.
I got it from an inheritance.
scratches and rim dings highly noticed in hand too...Thank for the input.

It looks authentic to me.

However, I would strongly suggest investing in a scale and a caliper for as little as $10 each. This way you can check the diagnostics on your coins. Also, it could save yourself a lot of heartache and money. Because nobody wants to find out the hard way they own a counterfeit that's worth a buck or two.

Only buy it if you get it cheap or comes in a lot with much better coins.
Rest in Peace
