Unfamiliar with this type of coin. Looks off. Does anyone know if this is authentic?
There appears to be a seam around the edge of the coin, as if it was cast from a mold.

Include an edge pic, too.

Thank you very much.
Your coin looks like a replica. Possibly not silver either.
Yes, the dull grey color and cast look are not right for the genuine issue, struck in silver.
A seam is definitive proof that this is a copy.
Thank you for your replies gentlemen. I figured it was a replica but I have no experience with these coins to make any judgment. I appreciate you taking time to help.
