Coin looks suspect to me but I need to defer to some others opinions
has that TOO NICE smooth "dusty" surface which a lot of the counterfeits i've encountered looks like
could be an actual nice coin though
what do you think?

Of course, any conclusion would need to have MUCH better images or the coin in hand.
Theres something about the way the lower hair looks...cant put my finger on it...but just looks wrong.
A good one to 'stay away from'

Exactly. I'd say the chances of this being genuine are less than one half of one percent.

No. The current pics show enough problems/issues to condem this coin as being fake.

That is a result of egregious use of the "Smart Blur" filter in Photoshop.
