I would appreciate feedback on the grading and authenticity of this 1902s silver dollar. I can probably work to improve the lighting in the picture, so please let me know if that would help. Thanks in advance for your help.

Better pics with better lighting will help in determining surface originality.

Looks genuine to me. AU Details. I think it's been dipped a few times over the years.

The rubber band burn mark on the backside really hurts it. Don't try to remove it. If you've already tried to remove it don't try anymore!

Thanks everyone for your comments. I haven't (and won't) done anything to clean it or try to remove any marks.

Here are a couple more pictures with different lighting, in case it helps.

I'll add that, after looking at it again, it looks much different in person than it does in the first two pictures I posted. In any event, I really appreciate the help.
