My best guess would be a fake coin, based on what I can see.. Grade is not necessary, Value less than 1$..

Sorry about the pics I was struggling. I toke it to a local coin shop and they weighed it and measured it and said they though it was real but could not give me the value. I'm gonna try to take better pics

Looks like a counterfeit. This coin is worth many thousands of dollars if genuine. Unfortunately the numerals in the date are a dead giveaway. I hope you don't have much money invested.

BH1964's comparisons suggest a counterfeit for sure. Nice job.

Unfortunately, the coin shop did not give you a straight answer. There was only one obverse die used on the 93S and the following can be determined from the photos above: the 3 on a genuine example should be raised slightly above the other numbers, on the OP coin the position of the date is incorrect. There are also die markers that could have been checked that the coins shop should have known about.
