the 83(CC) is known for bold strikes. this one falls into that category. I cant comment on PL qualities as the lighting is washing out quite a bit of the surfaces. I'm at MS63 due to the obverse

I would like to know what's going on with the MM and the 2 dots.

Could be die polishing inside the left C. The spots are probably just some flecks on the mirrored surface. Looks like it might be a VAM-8 based on the mintmark position.

Several more picts; I really appreciate the feedback and I'm finding this coin is difficult for me to photo due to the mirroring effect:

We know the cheek and neck are problem areas, but the obverse field details are still not clear. MS-63 at best, if that.

OP should know for himself about problem cheek area, after in hand examination with a 10x loupe just as the third party graders do.

I appreciate the problems with photography regarding PL fields.

Keith12 has a valid question regarding the mm.
I have to admit: I am unable provide the answer.

In regards to the mint mark, to my eyes the last pict is pretty clear but will take another and would appreciate input as to how to improve on this pict, maybe angle?

It's just some die polishing marks inside the left C. Here's a close up of the OP coin compared with a VAM-8 taken from VAMWorld.

Nice grade on a nice coin. I think they nailed it.
