Reverses on Morgans (and many other coins) tend to look better than the obverse.
As for the grade all that "noise" on the cheek could certainly keep it as an MS-62.
But with a little bit of luck AND particularly what it looks like in hand it might squeak out an MS-63.
(Images often accentuate marks that are not as nearly prominent with the coin in hand.)

MS62 close to a MS63 but the long deep hit on the chin keeps this Morgan out of 63 territory I believe.

MS-62 and I don't have this one yet, so, if the grade offends thee I've got an email address or you can call collect. Just sayin?  |

MS62 I agree with others, there is just too much little scratches and nicks on the lower chin and cheek area

That obverse shows several really bad spots that make professional grading iffy.

I have to agree with a solid 63. No way it has enough clatter to make it a 62 IMHO.. Looks like a textbook 63. If the obverse fields were a tad cleaner it could sneak into a 64.
