A very difficult coin to grade from photo. The coin to me looks AU 58, and I would not be surprised with a MS61 grade.

I would say AU53, as I believe the coin is circulated from your images, and additionally, netted down for the dark, terminal toning.

Here are better images (last night were handheld in terrible lighting).

I will say it is in a righteous (non-details) slab.

I'm only guessing but I would guess from the pics available it's a VAM-7. This is a near date VAM. I can't tell from the pics whether the mintmark is tilted right or not. If it's tilted right it could be VAM-6. I don't see any die breaks to make it VAM-6A or VAM-6B.

There is also a chance that it's VAM-11 as well. It appears as though the '1' in the date is indeed low.

With all that said, I think it's either 7 or 11... Time for Vegas baby!
Rest in Peace

NGC likes toned Morgan's, so I'd be at 55.
