a tad weak in strike for this year. with a little softness in the hair around the ear and breast. luster looks pretty much intact. surface preservation is AVG+ with minimal issues. eye appeal probably above average.

i think it makes MS65

My first impression is MS-65. Great eye appeal!

The lines near Liberty's face look like planchet artifacts rather than evidence of cleaning.
The marks on the cheek are noticeable, as is the rather heavy scuff on the point of the neck. There are also surface disruptions by the arrowheads. Too much contact for a gem but the toning and overall appeal warrant a +.
I'm on board with MS-64+.

MS-64*. Very close to 65.

No fooling the CCF.

PCGS graded this Morgan dollar MS64 (no +, alas!)

Can't complain at that grade really. I do think the photos provided make it look a bit better, but it isn't anything to fuss over. Nice coin!

When you enlarge a picture of a coin to the size of an ashtray, even small blems look like canyons.
