These coins are counterfeit. The lettering ,numbers and design is "off" and not like the real versions.

using a strong magnet, test to see if they have "any magnetic properties"

You couldn't post too many questions in this forum that's what it's for.

Yes, I would be glad to help you with any question or coin of concern.
