It kinda rings of silver I suppose and looks like it was polished a long time ago.
No "T-I" relationship to go by, but the "D-E" relationship is clear. The curl of the 3 in the date doesn't look like any in the book. Too bad about the hole. Thought it was the o-109 but all the serifs on all of the A's are there.
Sorry for the bad pics. Had to snap them on an almost dead battery. The viewer wouldn't even come on to let me see where I was aiming.

pretty close. the darker areas (grey) on the coin are muted and the lighter (whiter) areas are really shiney.

Looking at the coin again in hand with a loupe and comparing them to the pics, the areas on the Eagle's head/neck area, right wing, and top of left wing, and right banner appears to have a very light copper color coming thru.
