https://www.ma-shops.de/beutler/ite...&FORM=OUTLSBThis one looks really really clean. I am only concerned about the luster. Seller claims it is white and original. But, in my short time as a Morgan collector, I have seen a lot of coins with muted luster due to dipping. What do you think?

Looks like the pictures are a scan of the coin. Can't really tell the luster from the scan. The dark spot on the obverse K3/K4 area also doesn't look true. So it makes me think either the scanner isn't picking up the color right or the color has been enhanced. Contact mark wise is appears pretty clean, 65ish. Any way to ask for camera photos of the coin?

I think the pics are not showing the luster but is hard to see if it's hiding contact marks. Going to guess ms65 from the pics

Photo lighting is hiding surface marks, beware.

Not much luster in the pics, and the surfaces are very difficult to assess. It looks like there are some scattered marks, and I'm not entirely convinced it's mint state.

I reached out to Marco, owner at Ma-Shops. He's going to reach out to the seller with a link to here.

scans are really bad to grade from. if all the luster is there I'm seeing an MS66 coin OR she could have been dipped out and come in at UNC details. tough call

There is a full return policy, so I might order it anyway.
Seller stated pictures are not scans but taken with a camera and macro objective.
The result is really not good for judging the luster though.
