Sellers pics. Been looking for a Philadelphia mint of this year. This would fit in my budget. Some minor scratches on the obverse. Looking for opinion on authenticity. Shape of the 6 and 2 appear to be more in line with the "S" mint of the year based on reference phots I can find. Return privileges come with the purchase. Appreciate any opinions. Thanks!

Genuine coin but photos are trying to hide the scratches and cleaning it's had.

There are some scratches and maybe even graffiti in the right obverse field that might be more obvious in hand. But looks genuine to me.

The Date-logo was applied at the Philadelphia Mint before releasing obv. dies to other mints. The reverse dies were sent un-mintmarked.
