Hi guys, I dont know ANYTHING about USA Dollars, but purchased this recently as it looked nice and I like the Eagle on the reverse.
No Doubt you will tell me its a forgery or fake. I wont be too surprised as I only cost me £14.50 GB Pounds. However I wonder if anyone could enlighten me on this. If its real, what would it be graded at, what mint it came from...etc

Thanks in advance
Jim

The coin is genuine and from your pictures it looks like it would grade at AU-50, valued at about $30 US.

Jim,

The location of the mint mark, when present, is on the reverse, below wreath (between the "D" and "O"). when one doesn't exist, as with your coin, it represents being minted at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Nice coin ...
