I think this is a fun one to get your grade vs PCGS. I think this coin is has a lot going on that might give different opinions. Maybe not

Almost looks like two different coins. Looks like a 63 in the top two, MS-62 in the bottom two.

Same coin. Just tried to get pictures after the initial that showed some luster because 99% of my pictures look flat.

Good strike for a New Orleans Morgan. Decent eye appeal, several noticeable hits on Liberty's cheek and a larger hit on the eagle's breast. Luster looks OK and fields are relatively mark-free. Seems pretty solid for MS-63.

Yes, almost, but to be clear, it is the same coin. There are several marks and blemishes you can match between the images on both sides of the coin. It is those marks and blemishes that seem more or less severe depending on which image you view and therefore explains your assigning two different grades.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

the 00(O) have average strikes for the most part. yours is no different. due to the high amount glare from the lighting its difficult to assess the originality of the surfaces. I'm going to say the luster is just a little muted rather than dipped.

the coin would fall into a high MS62 or low end MS63 imo. mostly due to the subdued luster and scuffed surfaces
