Hi,
Need some help with the authenticity of  this one, look a bit weird, badly struck (?)
25mm

N#197800

Thank you

More importantly, it's a different type:  https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=859045

 

Maybe struck from worn dies?  I am seeing weights of 2.25-2.5 grams.

Yes, that's the problem, worn die, cast copy…? Not sure if am whilling to buy with some red flags.
 

Still not the exact type.  

The one you are considering has Gabor's titles on the shield side (not the madonna side).  Huszar 430.

 

Yes, the look of the metal near that defect (darker) is perhaps worrying.   Good choice.   

Ahoj.

Just my opinion.  It looks like a coin with a worn die that someone cut a piece of silver (some merchants cut silver) the dark patina is OK.  If it was a contemporary forgery, it would have been heavily diluted with copper - so it would have been copper-red.  On the contrary, this is quite good quality silver.  And a modern fake, on the contrary, would be more convincing and perfect.  My opinion.
