You forgot the white gloves! Video not too helpful, at least to me. Looks cleaned.

Seeing some luster but no real cartwheel. Can't tell if it has been cleaned or not.

In your video, you take the coin and turn it and it seems to have medallic orientation. It should have coin orientation. Unless this is a very severe rotated die, this is not as it should be and makes the coin a little suspect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_orientationIN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

This is a details coin. I would send it back. Just one man's opinion.

After viewing the video in full screen mode I have to agree that the coin appears to be AU details- polished or whizzed.

Without a doubt cleaned coin.
Hard pass & don't bother buying from that seller anymore.
These people are a serious contagion in our hobby, purposely cleaning these Coins and ruining them.
The ignorant buyers only further enable their terrible business practices.
You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think.
