I’ve looked at hundreds, maybe thousands, of MALs in building my
collection over roughly the last year so I’ll join in. Clearer photos would
help, but based on these I think the coin is legit. The
reverse legend does appear higher and closer to the
eagle than typical, but that kind of variation is pretty common. The wear appears normal/honest. It appears to show 3 banker’s marks, or perhaps 2 banker’s marks and a counter stamped F. The V and crescent marks are fairly commonly seen.
