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 98(O) almost always have average strikes which I consider this one. although your statement about N.O. strikes holds true in many cases the strikes were actually quite good especially starting in 98.
surface preservation is above average with very little marks throughout. luster is all there. eye appeal is also above average. this is a nice coin. it does have what looks like rust or rust like toning around the rims.
the coin is at least MS66 and maybe a + the coin is bean worthy. if that breast was just a hair more defined I could see it at 67 but that along with the rims probably will hold her back
this is a nice example

A nice coin to look at. I always try to grade before seeing any responses and I was at MS65+, but the wisdom of the crowd drags me to exactly MS66, final answer.

I know I'm late on this (been working 60+ hour weeks again) but I just wanted to say that is one heck of a Morgan dollar and absolutely beautiful.
