Moral of the story - Buy the coin not the slab. I don't know what the rationale for the higher grade was.

Crazy!

The details in the picture look good enough to make a judgment, but you're the only one that has the coin in hand, so I ask, that is wear we are seeing correct?

If so, this is one of the worst graded examples I have ever seen from PCGS. Even if that isn't wear all up her leg and gown, there are way too many minor hits to deserve a 64.

If I were you, I'd sell this coin. Right now you have an AU somebody is gonna pay a lot of money for. You could get paid, buy a coin that looks better than this one, and still have money left over.

I took the wear to be toning.. it's the same color as the toning in other areas. The amount of luster, combined with the reverse scratches potentially being on the holder, led me to believe it was a 64/65.

Too late for an unbiased opinion, but I agree with MS. Luster in the fields is unbroken and the spots on leg and shield that look like wear are "luster grazes" such as you see on the cheek of an MS63 Morgan dollar. Surfaces appear original. The 64 grade might be a tad too high. The FH designation I think is correct since Liberty shows all required features: earhole, three leaf sprigs, and full edge of hairline from brow down to neck.

Probably not a PQ coin for the grade but not drastically overgraded IMO.

I had thought MS too, and agree wholeheartedly with the 64 FH grade. The coin doesn't have chatter to warrant anything less and non of the typical circulation hairlines/marks.
