the 87(O) are typically weak and the reverse on this one puts it right in that box. the cheek and mouth area are a little banged up. AU58 or MS63. I'm leaning MS

I want to say 64, but I'm going 65.

Looks mint state, with an above average strike for a New Orleans Morgan. Chatter on Liberty's face and neck and the shallow scrape on the eagle's wing stand out as detractions. I'd guess MS-63.

MS-63 seems about right.

I think it might have been given MS62, looks like a weak strike.

Just to be different, I'll say AU-58.

I think MS-63 is about right, based on the face condition.

Was going to grade your coin MS-63. Looks nice! My VAM-30A that I acquired a few years ago, grades MS-63, and I purchased the coin as a normal 87-O Morgan. Did you cherry pick yours? Congrats either way as this has unique clashing, and it is a bit difficult to acquire!
