I find that MS coins are hard to differentiate, but I'll give it a guess--MS64?

it looks like there is some wear in the hair of Liberty so I will say AU-55. I am not familiar with this date as far as weak strikes but if they are known for a weak strike I reserve the right to change my opinion accordingly but that being said usually P minted Morgans are pretty strongly struck

From the picture provided there appears to be some wear in the hair, I would go au-55.

Amac44, thanks for posting such a challenging coin to grade. First impressions lent a grade of ms63/4, but after looking at the high points a couple of times I am not convinced it did not see some very light circulation. Without it in hand, I certainly would not be surprised if it graded low ms or indeed is a slider with the look of an ms coin.

Interesting...out of curiosity, I went over to coins.ha.com and looked at a number of 87 $1 in high resolution. Of the half-dozen I viewed, they have similar weakness of detail in those areas. Could be an MS coin.
