    This coin almost looks fake. Where did you get this one?

    The fields are so smooth, like cake icing spread with a spatula, just almost perfect, but then look at her hair and how worn it is.
    To me, those two things don't go together.

    Looks to be an EF coin that has been cleabed and possibly bead blasted. Not a proof.

    Right on. Thank you. I was considering buying the coin, but have since changed my mind. Her hair is pretty worn to be a proof. I would also expect more detail on upper breast and wing of eagle right?

    Her hair alone is enough to tell you it's not a proof.

    If someone tries to sell it to you as an "impaired proof", then offer them an "impaired price" for it.
