It seems like almost every coin Great Southern sells is "minty" fresh

I've seen many Great Southern auctions, and suspected a lot of post-processing of the pics.
Here, I bet this coin was processed directly in some chemical bath.

Look at the luster. That tells you everything. NOT original.

Luster aside, there are a bunch of nasty dings on the reverse. I don't like them as an ebay seller....
