I'm still learning how to grade the MS coins presently. I got thrown into the deep end when I got an early inheritance from my inlaws, coins that have been in the family since the 1920's and beyond. I only just moved to the US from Australia in Jan 2016 and got given the coins about Christmas 2016, it is a STEEP learning curve.
With the marks that are on her face, I don't see it getting better than MS63, but I am interested in the reveal!!

Tough to tell but I'll agree with the 63's.

I'd say 62. It looks 61 but that number is rarely assigned and there seems to be too much abrasion for a 63. Kinda looks like Ms Morgan just opened the blinds a little on a sunny morning.

Wow. Gotta give kudos for your photography skills.  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."

Please forgive the poor slab picture, It does say 64. Which I have it as a lower 64. The marks aren't that distracting when the coin isn't blown up.  |

Solid for the grade, I was at 64 as well, but waited too long to guess the grade, it has really decent color!
