This coin does not standout to me as counterfeit but does look well used without eye appeal to me. I think this coin would grade XF maybe AU 50...
How do you know it is authentic? Is it in a slab?
For me the 9 in 1970 is the key to this identification of the Small versus the Large date. The weak "Liberty" can be a little deceiving...
I think it is a die crack. I have been under the assumption laminations travel diagonally mostly with the layering of the planchet's material.

Unfortunately these coins are very common .. a 90% Silver Spot would be a justifiable value .. hold on to these until you can go to a show or coin...
The long and short answer is ... there is not a short cut to experience. True in all examples of life ... Even the experts can be mistaken....
This one imho is a bad fake ...
Wow the humor on this thread is killing me .... wait a minute give me time to change out these boots :)
I fully agree with @Pickin and Grinin's opinion. On the 64, a photo of the reverse would help me determine the circulated grade but to its value...
You must be true Coin Dealer ... you know that is worth twice that ...)
I knew with this group of experts we could find the solution ... I am all for blaming Fred :) :)
These things can happen when you are on Loan :) :) ... welcome to CoinTalk Robert and you were saying? huh?
Looks to me to be RPM-5 w/o die crack between 9 and 5
This coin IMHO is MS64. Strike is weak but common for O Mints. This is a common coin and sells in auctions for $60-110 for NGC or PCGS Slabbed...
