Glenn, welcome

if you'd like folks opinions on the finish, I think we need a glob of photos

right now it looks good, but some close ups of right, left, markings, full right, left and top...

is it yours or wanting to buy?

Edges look nice and sharp; markings look good. Finish looks original, no evidence of buffing [yay!]. Doesn't seem to be a lot of pitting. Looks good from my front porch.

If the rest of the photos look as good as you have posted so far, you have a winner.

Glenn, take your new pictures in natural shaded light outdoors. Use a camera with the closeup setting and use a tripod. The self timer can help eliminate camera shake.

Flash washes out the finish and you can't judge the finish from flash photographs.
