I included some pictures of the reverse to try and show some luster if it helps. I will post the grade in 48 hours.

MS62 for me a few too many ticks on the coin to make a full 63, but the eye appeal is off the chart for sure. Really pretty colors.

I'll say it makes 63 because of the eye appeal.

MS62 obverse, MS64 reverse. Net MS63, slight bump for eye appeal.

Thanks! There are still 26 hours until I provide the actual grade PCGS gave this coin. I really love how some of the more solid-toned specimens from this date look like beautiful sunsets (with the rays!) on the reverse. This coin interested me because it has a little bit (albeit inconsistent and splotchy) of colorful toning, but also a lot of original silver color. Regardless, the 1853 quarters are among my favorite 19th century US coins, and this is the one I chose for my type example of Seated Liberty (No Motto) quarters.

Many of you hit the nail on the head. Do you think this is CAC worthy?

I'd go for the CAC, got nothing to lose and I think it stands a solid chance of passing.
