    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    The coin looks real, but with an added mintmark, or something of the sort. The "cc" should be directly adjacent.

    To begin with, what exactly does a "puddled" mint mark look like?

    A VAM 5 has a dropped C in the mintmark as illustrated here. image

    I guess it could just be the photo or my monitor or my lack of experience, but this coin looks like a cast counterfeit just based on the surfaces. Probably it's all good, but unless I knew the seller, I'd be afraid.

    I think it's half real (can't see the front)

    I completely forgot that it could be a VAM image Regardless, the reverse doesn't look normal.

    Actually, better oics and a close up are whats needed to make any determination on either the mintmark or the coin itself.

    Right now, it could literally be anything.
