Obv 62, some contact marks and bag / roll rub. Rev is 63, few bag marks.
Luster has good cartwheel and looks original to the coin

My grade net MS62, obv holds it back from a 63 IMO

A lot of superficial scrapes, but I think it still makes MS-63.

the 91(S) should be sharp and bold. this one is coming in a tad light in the breast and hair around the ear. luster is broken in places. surface preservation is on the lower end which is affecting eye appeal. I think it would come in at MS61 outside shot at 62 but not higher imo

Good enough quality pictures will suggest a narrow range of grading opinions.
Nice luster, no wear, quite a few minor dings, no major ones.
obv MS-62,
rev MS-63

High end MS-62 or low end MS-63. Flip a coin on where a TPG might land.

The cheek chatter can be extensive at MS63 as long as there are some decent patches of unmarred field elsewhere. What probably sinks this coin to MS 61/2 is that inelegant and unfortunate scar in the upper right obv field.

The reverse is a solid MS 63. so I think they will give you MS62.
