I recently purchased this Liberty Half Eagle. What do you think PCGS graded her?

My guess is MS63, great coin with a lot of luster left.

I agree with MS63 if the luster is very good. These are heavily luster dependent so with weaker luster it's easily going down to MS62 and with blistering full mint bloom it could go MS64 even with those contact marks.

RESULT- PCGS graded the coin AU-58. The luster looks great in hand, and there may be just a hint of wear in the hair which I think resulted in the grade.
