I sent this coin to PCGS a few weeks ago and am awaiting the grading results.
How do you think this will grade?

There is a light scratch in front of the neck, and in front of the chin (obv).

Flat edge bump above the first 'A' in CANADA, hope the edge graining is undisturbed, three or four light scratches (rev.).

No wear, otherwise OK,
MS63.

Unc details (cleaning).

Not because I think it's cleaned, but because PCGS will think it's cleaned.

Thanks Guys
It looked like a 65 to me before I sent it.
It has a real satin like look to it and the lustre is unbroken under that toning.
I didn't spot any evidence of dipping or other cleaning.
Also for such a large coin I didn't see any major hits or other marks.

It will be interesting to see how this grades along with the other three silver dollars I sent in

I will post the results when I eventually get them
