A dip took away all the skin. It's still AU to me. Wish I could see what it looked like before the dip.

That's what I thought. It's too bright and has a LOT of sliding marks.

OP, keep in mind that pictures can be betraying. The first pictures I took of my seated dollar looked close to this (though not this bad), and though its a little bright under direct light, it isn't under ambient light and has 'normal' luster and not that much wear (it's an XF-45)
