Hi !

I bought this coin from an ebay dealer with a very high rating. but honestly aside from the low price for this coin and its condition, it just looks a little suspicious. any thoughts?:

supposed to be this: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces21737.html
weight: 28.5g
verry slightly magnetic but i've read it can happen with magnetic particles on non-magnetic coins over time

Sadly, a fake. Weight, date, denticles and other details just simply off.
I think the sharper (looking) the edges of the details (lettering, images etc) on the coin, the more likely it's not real. but I am no expert :3
