Please let me know your idea of grade. Thanks!
It has lots of luster, but some toning, I used a light almost parallel to the coin to take these pics with my phone.

The reverse in particular shows a wonderful glow and just has the "look" - put away and untouched for many years.

I agree with the Frog's grade of 64.

So do I. In the summer we frog gig at night. cut them legs off, nice thick batter, 350° oil for 7-8 minutes!

But really - that's a beautiful, well struck Peace dollar. I also agree - 64

Who knows - this could grade even higher if the obverse is clean under that toning.

MS-64, but the scratch from the you over through the eagle's back concerns me a little.

I'm going to go against the grain here. My initial reaction to seeing this coin is that it was a "liner" AU/BU. But, after seeing the other comments and the OP's description, possibly the pictures are not that flattering and I'm being too harsh. If it's MS, then 64 seems reasonable.

However, I think (and I can see some of you screaming Nooooo) that this coin can benefit from a light dip. I don't care much for this toning on this very common Peace dollar and it would probably benefit from a dip to give it real flash and blast it is truly lustrous under that toning.
