From the photo's I think they'll give it an MS63 since it's a GSA CC but it may be 62 in hand. Those 2 fairly long scrapes on the cheek area may be a problem.

63 but the brightness of the images may deceive. It has a shot at 64 with the reverse being gem quality. I bet the in-hand eye appeal of this piece is excellent.

It just makes 63 imho.

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."

I think you earned your wings, MS63.

It might just make MS-63.

That darned cheek bugs me, but the reverse gives me a happy sigh. Go between at 63. As I've heard it, a CC counts for 5 other Morgan's when crossing the Styx.

MS63, I wouldn't get it graded, I would leave it in its GSA box. IMHO.

You can have it graded by the TPG while it remains in its original GSA holder. Best of both worlds.
