I know this coin is highly faked, I have not weighed it but it does seem to be silver. Any glaring flaws before I send it off to PGCS?

@bck, first welcome to CCF. Second, if this coin was mine, my next steps would be attempting to confirm whether it is real or not. Paying someone like PCGS to do this for you is foolishly expensive. Is a strong magnet attracted to it? What is the diameter and weight? What is the specific gravity? With this information, we can at least determine whether or not it is actually silver or only seemingly silver.

Hello and welcome.

Sorry, but there definitely are plenty of signs, just from these pictures, that your coin is not genuine. The overall appearance is very mushy, the font style and letter spacing on the English-language side are wrong, and the tarnish has the very typical "artificial tarnish" appearance.

Feel free to send it off to PCGS anyway, but they'll just bounce it right back to you unslabbed.

Photos are a little too small to see the detail.
