Is this 1891 Carson city morgan just cleaned or counterfeit?

As title says, I came across this coin and became suspicious of it, it looks like its cleaned, but also the toning appears to have that painted look.
Cant tell if its pitted or a cleaning to the surface.
Also a 1 day auction has some alarm bells raised as well.
So what do we think cleaning or counterfeit?

Fake
It looks counterfeit, as does the example in seller’s “completed listings”. That said, the pictures of the latter aren’t as clear.

Strange looking mint mark for sure. "Brushed" on patina
no bueno
It is definitely counterfeit.
FAKE. Reported.

Listing has been pulled... Good work. Cheers, RickO
Listing cannot be found so either it sold or was pulled.
Would have liked to see it so I could have gained more knowledge on counterfeit Morgans.
