I saw this one up for sale. What do you think PCGS graded it?

i think they graded it BBTL (blinded by the light)

the best I can tell I'm at MS65 but the surfaces are washed out. Grape you know better than to post photos like this.

Actually I think PCGS tends to grade hard on this common date. Not wanting to hurt the value of highly graded examples. I've seen gems in a 3 holder more times than I care to remember

Not a collector of this series, so my opinion is MS-64, obverse appears to have too much contact marks on her face.

In the wise words of anyone who has ever graded a morgan, what were they smoking? There is NO way this is a 67 much less a 67+! I've seen nicer 65's!
