I agree with lafaa, it looks more like 64 or 65 if there is indeed no wear(tough to tell); and the value increases DRAMATICALLY at that point for this coin. I'd say it's worth sending in to a TPG in order to find out. |

my MS-64 morgan has ALOT more bag marks on it. I would bet it will come out as at least MS-65

I think the marks in the field by the nose will keep it from MS-65. Still this coin is a beautiful MS-64.

The obverse is very nice, the reverse talons and breast feathers I would expect to be much better for an MS 64 grade, but the obverse is a small percentage of the overall grade.....I'll sit on the fence at MS63/64

Certainly a very strong strike. Pics are too small on my phone - will weigh in on grade when I can see it on my monitor in a half hour or so.

Ah. A much nicer coin on a 20" screen than on a 4" one.  Assuming it's not AU58, I'm thinking a strong 64 with a shot at 65. Remember, though, that one-grade jump turns it from a $100 coin to a $700 coin; the TPG's will apply a strict standard before they create that kind of wealth. |

I also think it has a shot at 65, fields are very clean. I disagree with MS-63 because it doesn't have any major contact marks in the focal points and is too clean for that in general.

I like to get schooled, I'm still at 63, the obverse is very good possible MS65 but the reverse has not much for definition on the breast and the lower wreath leaves and talons are flat, I would expect better for MS64 or MS65..1921 usually has nice strikes...
