Reeds on the outside edge of the coin. Looks fake to me. Like a Magicians coin? Note the mintmark is missing. The two edges of the coin show two different die states. The one without the mintmark, looks like a fresher die. The side with the mintmark looks like a LDS die. Appears bent or over polished and the bridge of the nose is showing die abrasion on that area. The rim is almost totally gone from the Mintmark side. So I feel the coin was altered.

I think Dr. coop calls it correctly. Deliberate falsification.

Don't think it's a Magician's coin. Just a fake coin through and through.

IGWT on the side with the bust is clearly the font style of 1963-1964. The other side has the correct style but obviously not genuine with the size of the letters varying (not to mention the bust being absent).

The more I look, the worse it gets. There are a lot of problems with the date and LIBERTY on the portrait side.

Not a real U.S. coin, sorry.
