Quite possibly, with another under AMERICA. The sheer quality of the coin's surfaces make it more susceptible to such problems. This one's a perfect example of why the early San Francisco Morgans are considered a high water mark in American mintage; I would have dearly loved working amidst a group who so consistently returned such superior product.

I'm OK with 64PL for this one.

Yes, there are a couple of noticeable fingerprints on the coin.

I had graded this one MS-64PL before posting it here, it's always nice to confirm the grade you had given. The seller had "BU" written on the 2x2.
