Dial of a typical 1680 - Circa 1978

Hi guys just a quick question.

What are the characteristics of a 1680 dial from 1978 with a 5 million serial number?

Is it a Matt dial? Or what?

I am asking because my 1971 5513 had a Matt dial and it is failry lighter / more Matty than my current 1680 (Macro pic below).

Picture below :)

Thanks

Wael
