It could just be the photos but the fields look like slight circulation rub. AU58 slider, if not then MS63.

Solid 64, good shot at 65.

We're thinking along the same lines. I adjusted the OP's photos to remove color, sharpen clarity, and darken the images. There is a disruption in the luster on the high points. I see a slight amount of wear on the cap, cap fold, hair over the ear, big bear claw, cheek, and fields. On the reverse, I see a touch of wear on the eagle's breast and in the fields. AU-58, but a spectacular AU.

Here are the adjusted photos:

Looks like a GSA coin.
I see it as MS-62 with a reasonable shot at -63.
Mostly because of all the marks on the cheek.

Huge cut on the eagle's breast MS63 at best. And I'm not sure that's a GSA holder

I don't see the wear pointed out...the bag marks on the eagle are distracting...MS63.

MS-63, although if indeed in the gsa holder I would not be surprised if NGC gave her the old CC bump up to MS-64.

AU58, It doesn't look like a GSA. There are no small ledges at 10, 2, and 6 on the reverse.

I don't know how anyone could consider this coin Mint State and MS63/64 at that. The luster is disturbed on the cheek and the obverse fields and there is no cartwheel luster. Carson City struck coins very well. This coin looks dipped to boot.

If this is a MS64, then I have about 50 MS70 Morgans to sell.
