Ms62 mainly due to some hits to the reverse. Very nice and attractive coin.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Agree with 62 based on the reverse hits. Still looks like a nice coin.

MS63. I think the overall look of the coin is a little better than 62. just my opinion.

Would a quick dip get rid of some of the grime on it? It looks dirty and if a quick dip could bring out luster that is covered up by the grime it would not make it into a MS64 but it would have more eye appeal. You can buy all the Peace dollars in MS63 for less than $1000 except the 34-S. There are four of them with mintage of less than one million. I like all the Peace dollars in high grade. I think they are sleepers and I have thought that for years.

If I didn't welcome you back in 2013 I will now,  to CCF! Beautiful strike on the obverse, MS63 seems appropriate.
