She's a beauty, very nice details and color but my old school grading would have called it uncirculated. The 60 to 70 coins I really don't know hoe to differentiate

Okay, dealer let the Peace Dollar go for $30 like I already mentioned.
Was harder dealing over the Franklin, he was asking $15, and I offered $10, we settled on $12.50. So I'm happy I got a deal on two good coins, and he's happy too.
The Franklin has some small, dark spots on the reverse over the ED in United, T in States, and middle of the bell, and on the obverse between the chin and 19, other than that it has the proof quality, mirror image and is a great PF-63.
The Peace Dollar, on the obverse side has a finger/thumb print starting to show on the rim and above In God, small blemishes on the face. Reverse has some toning under Peace and along the rim.
I'll try and take some better, more sharper pics of both coins and post them here for all to see.

Are the lines of that mark raised? Or is it a scratch? Or a discoloration?

You can see the finger print very well on the Peace dollar. Is there any way something like that can be removed without causing harm?

Not that I know of, and anything I could try might harm the coin. Since it's slabbed, I'll leave it as is. The thing that bothers me, not enough to resell this coin, is someone put a sticker across Liberty's neck just under the WE, and then it was removed leaving the glue behind on the coin.
But it's still a great looking coin and the $30.00 price was a good deal as I know some Peace $'s of this year in same grade can run $40.00, and I've seen some in small town auctions receive bids as high as $60.00, but the bidders aren't buying the coin for it's grade, just because it's old, and silver.
