Definitely need to see a reverse image. Without it would be considered an altered/damaged coin.

The whole-coin image is frustratingly small. However, it does appear to be an in-collar double strike. We need a much larger image to gauge the actual number of strikes and to rule out a counterfeit second strike. We also need a shot of the reverse.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome & your interest. I struggle with posting,So I apologize in advance. The coins been in the family for decades, I just recently developed an interest in collecting. On the advice of a friend, I had the coin graded. Hope these images will be helpful
