Anytime someone says "I don't know anything about coins". And has rare coins to sell, they are always fake. I guess they think they are not liable...
Your red is not red. Red is when it is brand new. The red you have is from environmental damage. In this 1st photo, I found this coin, it might...

You could scratch test it. (gasp!) If the purity was known, and it was the size of a dime (smaller) you could figure out what it was supposed to...
What does it weigh? Put another coin next to it for size comparison.
