The reverse does have a bit of a PL look but I don't think it is, atleast not from these photos ...
In the second photo it shows what appears to be a little chatter on Liberty's cheek and few marks In the field across from her eyes ...
It's a really sharp coin overall , I'm gonna say MS-64 !!

MS-64

Hard to tell with the images, but I would guess that it didn't get the PL designation. It looks close though.

MS 64 PL - I am only guessing at PL because in one photo the reverse looks PL and the blurry obverse photo looks PL. If she is PL, there is not much cameo.

If it's the older holders before the + designation, 65. If it's post + designation, 64+.

Semi-PL.

Since both sides need to exhibit PL qualities I have to go with MS65. This may have to be in hand to determine PL or even SMPL

PCGS MS64PL. OGH's are known for "not really" PL designation, and I agree that this coin is probably "semi PL obverse, fully PL reverse."

1879-S-Morgan-Dollar,-You-Vs.-PCGS-Grade-Added

In hand, reverse is 4-6" mirrors, obverse 2" max, using newsprint. I compared it to my DMPL 78 CC and the mirrors are far superior on the DMPL coin as expected, but this 79S is definitely PL on both sides, reverse being more PL than the obverse. I'll have to see if I can get Todd to photo it and bring out the mirrors.

Nearly flawless surfaces and a great strike, I think it would reslab MS65 or MS65PL The reverse is mirrored enough that the die polishing lines reflect.
