It looks way better in hand, lots of luster and HUGE cartwheel.

First pics: Nice strike. Very clean fields. Hits to cheek and neck should yield a solid 64 with a chance at 65.
Second set of pics: More chatter in the fields and if that's a rub on the lower cheek, then I could see them giving this a superlative AU 58. Not ugly enough for a 60 or 61.
That being said, MS 64+

hmm curveball . I will say AU-58 With rub on the cheek. If not I will say MS-63 due to the hairlines which look to be on the pics

I'll say MS-64
And I believe it's 1902-O VAM-15 Doubled Profile, 2-Olive Reverse.

Strike seems above average. Photos don't show much "pop" but presumably luster is excellent in hand, as you say. I don't see any prooflike character. The visible hits and apparent obverse hairlines are negatives. I would call it 64 but PCGS may have gone higher. Are you pleased with the coin? That's the real bottom line!

In hand the coin looks fantastic, luster, cartwheel, and great eye appeal. I can see why it graded at what it did, like I said a curve ball. This is one of those coins that just doesn't photograph well no matter what you do. I am going to reveal this one early as I wont be around much this weekend. Survey says !!!!

A bit surprised at the (+) but I expected the 65.
