    If it's genuine then circulated PR50 details cleaned is my guess.

    Not much can be gathered from the pics besides it does show wear. Better pics are needed.

    The incomplete obverse rim does leave me suspect that it's a proof.

    And no squared rims

    It's not a proof strike, the denticles are a dead giveaway to that fact. I would call it AU-50. It's hard to see for sure, but it does look like it took a polishing in its past.

    What's funny? I've been collecting proof coins for over thirty five years and know exactly what I'm talking about. I was just trying to give as honest of an an answer that I can based on your images. It is possible that I am incorrect, so I say send it in to a TPG and post the results. This would help me to avoid making the same mistake again.

    According to him we are all dumb, and he is the only smart one.

    Is that doubling under the date or just the picture?
