just a tad bit too much contact on the obverse relief to make 64, no?

phenomenal blue tint on the reverse, another beauty

Yeah, another 63; it's kinda frosty so all the dark marks on the cheek get a pass.

I'm not going to feed you this fish, shadowtrooper78, except to tell you that if you approach it logically and according to established rules of attribution, you will be able to easily VAM this one from VAMworld.

I think the blue tint is a function of lighting on this one; check the obverse.

62/64, so I'd call it a high 62. I don't think it would go 63 with that much action on the cheek. Here's a 63 Morgan I own for comparison's sake.

PS the mintmark is tilted if that helps you with VAMming it, that jumped out at me.
