Hard to tell from that photo, it is on a slight angle
Need a picture head on with no glare.

A slightly different angle with less light.

See if you can take one at a 90 degree angle, not tilted. I can't even guess.

Alas...you see my dilemma. It is in a plastic holder, and getting a good view is tough. Angles lead to glare or blur. This is from a scope. Getting an image that is in focus with no glare, but light enough has been a challenger.

From the last picture supplied, I will say it is a Near Rim.
If I had the coin in hand, it would be to tell in seconds.
