Beautiful coin and excellent photos IMO!
Based on the extremely sharp detail and slight cameo obverse I presume this is a proof. PR-64 PCGS, perhaps? I think I see some faint obverse hairlines which could keep it out of '65 territory.

Such a beautiful coin!
For luster, try different lights, stronger lights, different angles, etc.

I agree with Matt. I might add: If your camera supports it, try different light immunisation settings. I like tungsten for copper but not sure about your coin. Try them all.

Killer strike! While I would have agreed with Jaobler on a proof, the OP said the coin was dripping with luster, and I usually dont think of proof's as "dripping with luster". So, is it MS or proof?

I vote and hope proof. Strike seems sharp enough and the contrasting color between devices and fields helps out.

Not sure why or how you could do better than those photos. They look as good as the coin.
