The seller's photography seems to be disguising some marks on the cheek and in the fields. I suspect if this is selling for MS-64 money it is probably MS-64 grade. We'll see once the OP gets it in hand and can get some nicer photos up.

I'm not a Morgan collector but that coin is sweet and if I were to have one, your coin would be what I want...awesome, good luck with it

IMHO you have a MS-64 with a green bean or a star.
Great coin and one to be proud of.

If this makes an MS64 grade - I am in at even money. That's no MS64. Technically it's at least a MS65. Keep it where it's at and admire it. When you need to offer it on the market send it off to NGC and they'll put their strap on it. |

Coin in hand. This IS a nice one. Will send off to NGC in the near future. Of interest, there is a die clash on the obverse and reverse, both minor, but definitely there. ALL of the lettering on the reverse is MD or DD, along with the edges of the wings. I do not see a VAM listed that has all of these qualities. |

I have been looking at pictures of 64, 64PL, 65, & 65PL's online...this one has a shot at 65 or 65PL.
Let you know in a couple months.

After looking at the first photos and the last ones you posted, doesn't even look like the same coin. I agree it might pull a 65 but if offered to me I'd be paying 64 price just like you did. Buying from photos can go either way, sometimes the photo makes the coin look worse than it is and sometimes it looks far better than it really is. I think who ever you bought this from did a little work on the photos to swing it to the better side but at least you paid correct money for it.

 Exactly what I was going to respond with before I left for work this A.M. (but ran out of time) The seller definitely doctored those pictures to work in his favor. Still a nice looking GSA CC though. |

Based on the additional pictures, I think you are looking at a MS-64 or thereabouts. It doesn't look reflective enough to get PL. So it looks like you paid a fair price for a nice coin.

Based on the second set of pictures, it would be in the higher MS-64 range I don't think it would make MS-65
