Hello again, can anyone tell me if the rim on this coin is normal? I have has this coin for a while now, but I was looking at it and the rim does not look normal. I am hoping this is'nt a counterfit. Can anyone tell me if it is real or counterfit? Its weight is what the books say it should be.
If it is real what would you grade it?
Please help.

Thank y'all!

To me it looks like this one, so I would say it is not counterfeit.

I don't see any reason to believe it's counterfeit. Heavily hairlined on the obverse, obviously brushed, and as such a lot less valuable than it might be otherwise.

It's AU53-55, but cleaned. Worth close to $100; the cleaning cut the value by half.
