Reverse,
The "N" in UNITED is the font.
The period following the "V" in the designer's initials is to low to the rim.
Obverse,
The mint mark appears to best match (closest) die set 2, but it doesn't have enough clockwise rotation, its also a bit high.
Oh, did I mention that its also a DDO! look at the last letters in LIBERTY and the 1&9 in the date.

That looks like the P vdb with the DDO-001
That would make it a genuine coin with an added S.
The sellers 1909 S Indian looks bad also.
S is the wrong shape. Reported.

And a DDO!

@MarkW63 Correct, which makes it an altered coin that would otherwise have some value. Maybe acetone can get that mintmark off and save the coin?
