Here is a 1901-O Morgan dollar with I think an above-average strike. There is only a hint of weakness above Liberty's ear and the eagle's breast feathers are pretty well defined. An unfortunate bag mark in the center of the breast affects the detail there. The only real weakness is in the tail feathers.

This is conservatively graded MS-63, in a very old, small ANACS holder (even smaller than the more recent "small" holder). At this point in ANACS history they were using a 6-digit serial number with letters for the first two characters. I always watch out for these holders since I think the coins are sometimes undergraded.

I believe they got the grade right, but the strike is hammered for a New Orleans coin. Wowser. Knowing you, it won't be resold (), but it'll probably fetch more in the current slab than in a modern NGC MS64 slab.
