50 cal API?

Just bought some rounds of what is purported to be 50 cal API. There is no silver tip. The headstamp is marked LC 05. Is there something in the reloading process itself that would wear off the silver color from the tip? Why don't they then just repaint it?

I don't like the fact the seller showed a picture of silver tip then sent me some without color, without mentioning this deficiency. I am waiting for the mad to wear off before I contact the seller.

Also, the bullet is not fully flush with the casing. I have never seen ammo like this before.
