    Definitely harshly polished.

    Tough to question authenticity from the photo because these are highly countrfeited, so I would strongly encourage you to check the coin thoroughly.
  • Unfortunately someone ruined what looked to be a nice coin. That coin is way too shiney to have original surfaces, my guess dipped and lightly polished. As long as you didn't pay too much over melt, no harm no foul. Nice detail.

    Looks like an ex-jewelry coin. Hope you didn't pay too much over melt.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    Looks polished... but a nice keepsake, if not too expensive. Cheers, RickO
  • I agree with the opinions above. Just FYI, current melt value for this coin is right at $95.

    Is there a 'D' under your thumb on the reverse?
