I am torn between 64 and 65, everything looks good except for a couple parts of the strike, very nice coin and wish it was in my collection.

The eye appeal is wonderful. The mark on the cheek might have impacted the grade down to MS-64... but the eye appeal would bring it up to MS-65, in my opinion.

PCGS gave this one a MS64 BN

I agree with SPP on this one, I think the cheek mark is what brought it down to a 64

Glad the piece fits into your collection! I had a thing for the blueish brown large cents at one point...

The strike could/should be a little stronger for a 65 grade. That tiny tic on the cheek isn't a big concern. If the strike and/or lustre were stronger, it'd be in 65 territory.

A very nice Large Cent. IMO even though the image is quite large the surfaces and strike
are adequate for a 65. Luster plays a major roll in grading uncirculated coins and luster
is often difficult to capture in a photo. Another trip to PCGS might end in a 65.
The few PCGS 65BN Large Cents I have seen in hand all had superb luster.
