I am about as far from an expert as you can get but I'll go ahead and guess MS-63.

The strike is pretty good for a New Orleans coin. I see a couple of small hits on Liberty's face and a pretty deep one on the eagle's breast. I don't think any of these are distracting enough to bring it down below MS63, however. The chatter on Liberty's cheek is minimal.

Sorry, I have to be the wet blanket . I believe its BU or MS60 maybe 61. Uncirculated with no trace of wear but I see many bag marks in the fields and cheek on the obverse to the point that the luster is wore off.Reverse looks much better but a number of rim dings are showing.exellent strike for an "O" Morgan.

62, strictly graded, and 63 in the market. Have you checked the mintmark for the O/O VAM's?

i'd say ms-61-62 looks to have quite a few contact marks.

I'll go with the ms63, although that carbon spot kills the coin for me.
