1881-S Morgan Dollar Education Needed Could This Be A Prooflike Coin?

The toning on the coin is obscuring the ability to judge if the example is PL. A lot of the PL and DMPL examples have been dipped to remove the toning. There are very few heavily toned PL and DMPL examples in TPG holders. Based on recent photos my guess it will not grade PL because the coin must have complete mirror fields on both sides to get the PL designation and the toning could be blocking the mirrors. The OP example is not showing any contrast between the fields and devices that are typical on PL coins, but contrast is not a criteria to get the PL designation.

Thank you slider, it also sums up one of my original questions about the pl designation, its the same as toning, an attributed thing, a toning can be removed so can a pl. A morgan proof will always be a proof even if its a lowgrade coin, but the premium might be affected

Thank you thq, informative thread.
I find the part about denticles hard to understand, I'm not so fluent in english. I havent found a good side by side pic.
Found a good video by coingeek showing a proof and a pl.

I try to learn as I go, we all hope to find that one pl or proof chilling in the corner of a flea market
