AU Details, scratched or damaged was my first thought. That arcing scratch goes from L through the bust and out through TRVST. I suppose it's possible they didn't notice, or it got a pass.

Nice luster, but I'd say MS-63 for the overall level of bag marks. That looks like a die crack on the left obverse, not a scratch.

Yeah kbbpll, I'm in with the die crack crowd here; very common to have those in that same location, and a few have die breaks within that area.  The feature at the RV of trvst looks a scratch to me... Probably a weak strike making it look AU, and MS-63 looks right to me also. |

I'm in with MS62, perhaps 62+ given the posted pics.

I'm at AU58 on this one.
it could be the lighting but to me the luster is not what it should be for an MS coin

I don't see any wear. MS-63.

Definitely some marks on the holder that are hard to differentiate. Will go with MS-63

I would evaluate at AU58. Some odd discoloration and dings on the neck as well.

Nice coin!
Did you buy it slabbed already or submit it yourself?

Bought it slabbed locally but only paid "P" price not "S"! Definitely a die crack and not a scratch. Booming luster, bright white coin.was hoping to squeeze a 4 but as most of you said NGC graded it a 63.

63 sounds reasonable
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."

It honestly looks AU+ to me. The wing in particular appears to show evidence of circulation. That said, it's a commercial uncirculated piece these days that looks MS62 by modern standards.
