The mint mark looks a bit off, to me, on this coin. Any comments?

II come up with VAM 9 variety. Looks as if the 4th star is incomplete and the CC is tilted right. Thanks for the website!
It's real
I like the looks of this one yet the surfaces appear a bit off.

Real (lightly) cleaned.
I’m practicing this very thing. My opinion is really from a point of inexperience but getting better.
That said I think this one has been cleaned. The fields against the devices some scratches or scrapes or something just a feeling. Thanks 🤓🙀. I’m not qualified to say much about genuine or not.

It appears to have been burnished.
that is my impression. if it is a counterfeit, it is WAY above average.
here is my small contribution towards verification of the coin and especially mm. LINK
It look authentic to this old CC Morgan collector....Cheers, RickO
