I'm going to guess that you are unhappy as thought it might make MS63 or MS64 but it has come back MS62! However, I place it at MS63.

I'd have to say MS-63 as well.

the 00(O) normally have average strikes. the reverse is AVG- due to the breast. the lighting here is a little strong so being able to assess the luster across all surfaces is pretty much a guess. the luster on the obverse looks like its more subdued and broken in some areas. I dont think the marks/scuffs on the profile/neck are anything major other than rubbing up against other coins. i'd like to see photos with a little less lighting and a little sharper as text AMERICA looks like something is going especially in the ER area...scratches, poor strike?
combining obverse with the strike and subdued luster I can see this one at MS63 albeit a nice 63.

Obverse MS-63, reverse MS-64, net MS-63.

The light bouncing off the luster makes it difficult for me to say. I like that is has a lot of luster, but there is some rash on the cheek and neck. I'm not sure if its just the lights, but the eagle's breast looks worn. I can't see very many feathers there.
I'd say AU58 to MS61, but I'm terrible at this game!

I would say MS63, possibly MS64. doesn't look that far of.
@Sidekick-CA, did you feel it over or undergraded?

Thought it should have been a 64+ or a 65. Looks like I still have a tendency to over grade given most of the responses here. Thanks

It still a 62/63 for me. Overgraded, sorry.

64 looks right to me. Luster makes up for a few hits.

Very solid 64. I think the grader got this one right.

I can't really argue with 64. Well done.
