Surf up an original and compare features.
Sounds like you have the other factors covered.

What makes you ask if it is real or not?
Are you happy from where it came from?
Only remaining tests are provenance and
XRF, looking for discreet alloy of .9167 fine, 22 ct gold, 2 ct copper.

If weight is good and sound test good. Must resonate when doing a coin toss. If a dull thud then good chance of being fake. If you hear the resonating tone then in all likelihood the coin is okay.

They look good. You've done a lot more testing than I've ever done.

First I weigh. Then I ping. Then I check details with a loupe. Use reference photos from any of the big dealers to compare.

Krugerrands do change that background on the reverse as you can see with your 2 dates.
