Just concerned if the coin is real, Ultra luster and perfect for a 1919 coin
Please any thoughts? Thanks in advance

Those are very difficult photos to judge anything by!

Nothing jumps out as fake ... if you have the coin in hand try some straight on photos in less glaring light.

I'm not sure... the color is too brownish for the stunning details it has.

Can't really tell from photos but I would think real. Don't know why anyone would fake a 1919 Cent.

I don't see any luster and the coin is XF at best.

The incuse VDB designer initials on the truncation of the obverse portrait (Lincoln) are impossible to fake ... shown well in your 2nd set of photos.

The coin is genuine ... common date XF or so.

The "glossy" can come from polishing...
The color, if indeed recolored, I would wonder why bother with this Cent too....
but could be someone wanted to attain a uniform color in an album...and then they polished it to 'spruce it up' a bit.....
Rest in Peace

Second set makes it look completely normal; obverse hair is well worn, so I'm leaning toward VF-35.
