It would depend on what they did to the coin. I would be good with an acetone bath with most coins. A dip would probably upset me a bit. Many...
What color was the cent?
It looks to me as if the coin has been smashed.
The images are not in focus. It's hard to know what the surfaces actually look like.
Nice coin. The luster brought it up to a 66.
It looks to have surface damage and it has been cleaned. It's worth no more than a dollar.
How long ago did he receive payment?
They sell correctly graded coins at high prices. I understand that they pay fair prices for nice problem free coins.
It looks like he is working on the edge of the die. The station has a sign that says "green". I guess it's a polishing wheel using green polishing...
Do you know more about the photo? Is that a wire or polishing wheel?
Pretty coin. I love the luster. I would have guessed 64.
Nice looking set.
Cool looking piece.
Checking with the buyer by email sounds like a good idea.

We are all learning. Many years ago, I bought a Flying Eagle Cent thinking the date was repunched. It was just the mylar. Fun lesson.

I don't think everyone will ever agree on what a variety is. The CPG dumps everything into the same term, even die clashes.
I'll guess the coin rotated in the holder and the second date is just an impression in the mylar. An image out of the holder would help.
Nice coin. I'll go with 66.
