    Ditto. The fields on the reverse especially give it away.

    You guys are good. The seller calls this "incredible luster." This is not luster.

    Probably (98% certainty) not, but I'm drawing no firm conclusions from these images. They're not good enough.

    I agree with it being whizzed. Something doesn't look right about the "luster," and the lines by the eagle's right wing looked suspicious.

    yuk. I really don't like the look of the lower half of the obverse, clearly messed with and dipped to remove any trace of original skin.
