This is a well circulated silver piece weighing 26 grams and has a reeded edge. I purchased it in the 80s. Are there any signs it is not authentic?

Sorry, not a real one to me. The coin is too crude to be true. I would guess the milled edge is also found not too tidy.

Does it look like a contemporary or modern piece?

No idea about it is a contemporary counterfeit or not but I incline to believe it is a modern forgery for the craft is too good to be a contemporary pieces.
