Oh no. That means we have a couple more weeks of inconclusive pics and "trust me, it has to a matte proof" posts....
You have it backwards. Think it through. The L is significantly lower than the rim (on your coin) and since it's so close, it will be protected...
Send the darn thing to a TPG and quit screwing around. :banghead::facepalm: Nobody can say for certain if it has the key diagnostics, based on...

Who is "They"? Who told you 5 centavos were minted in Denver in 1969? Not trying to be rude, but I can't make sense of your post. I understand...
