know it's very late in the auction,but who thinks these photos were altered?I don't mean positioning,cropping or sizing. I think something was done to blacken the fields at least.

It looks like some black marker!!

Edited and Stay away. Contrast has been highly messed with. Coin in hand will look lame.

I would guess that he has cranked the contrast way up, and messed with the brightness some too. Those pics do not look natural, and do not represent the actual look of the coin, I will almost guarantee it.

Yeah,I know to stay far away from stuff like this. I've seen others,or maybe the same seller on a new account, with similar look to their prooflike Morgans.

Black level has been altered to make the fields look darker than they really are. A histogram of the images confirms that.
