doesn't even look silver....

What is on the coin?

If it is just debris or dirt that is one thing, but it looks like rust coming through. The picture is too far out to really see anything.

Could you please post a better picture.

It does look a little rough. Can you weigh it? It should weigh 27.2 grams roughly.

It does appear to something other than silver. Sorry!

Certainly a fake. I can't make out too much detail, but other than what appears to be rust, the rims aren't even close to an authentic piece.
