    I would say the only original surface on this coin might be the edges but we can't see the edges in the picture.

    Is this coin tooled?

    It's not the crappy tooled coins like that Nero that bother me. Those are easy to spot. It's the precision tooling coming from European auction houses (mostly) that alarms me. There's way too much of it these days.
