A couple things struck out to me about this coin, first the look and color of the coin seem kind of off, but the reverse has the distinctive hit in the upper left of the eagle breast which is a key indicator of counterfeits.
What do y'all think of this coin?

The seller's coin is a fake.
The fake also has a cast bump above the D in Dollar and metal that connects the wing to the S in states.
Here is a photo of the counterfeit reverse:

what am i missing? that image is not in the seller's listing and they can't be changed since there are bids.

The reverse photo is from a known fake that matches the seller's coin. The seller already removed the listing.
tx. i see the text right above the image now. i notoriously miss text right on top or bottom of an image.
