: I believe this one might be genuine because the surface is very smooth and shiny like a dime. no apparent tampering.

No to me it looks like someone has just plated over the copper plating. These coins often show bubbles in the copper plating and I still see those bubbles on this coin. On a true non-plated planchet they would not be there.
