Is this coin a legitimate coin or a counterfeit. Seller has sold other coins that are real. His statement is" Coin appears to be a nice problem free XF". Thank you for the help!!   Edited by murty

The dark color worries me. Maybe was underground aka metal detecting find. Yes it looks xf. But is it a details coin remains to be seen. You can find better examples unless you can get this for dirt cheap.

The sharpness is EF, but it's got a lot of little nicks that are going to keep from ever upgrading from that. The color is odd, and does not look natural.
I believe that it is genuine, but it might not rate a "clean grade."

What would be the price range to pay for this coin?

Agree off color, but feel the nicks are exaggerated by the pic size and don't detract that much.

looks like an overdipped 53
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
