Photo's kind of dark to give best opinion. Net MS62 or better. Reverse looks MS64. Would slab in a heartbeat....

The reverse would probably bump it up to a MS-63 for me.

Nice coin. Reminds me of generally what might be an MS63. Slabbing? Ask yourself why. 1. Because you just want to? Go for it. 2. B/c you want to optimize profits selling it? Make sure to check out all grading costs (memebership fees, shipping, insurance etc.), ebay fees (if this would be the selling route), vs. value at what grade you think it might be. Make sure you do not mind the costs vs. what you would clear. And know despite what many people think, there is no science to grading. So if it was cracked out and re-submitted, even to the same company, you are never guaranteed the same grade again. Slabs are only an opinion you are paying for, and that opinion can change depending on how good the coffee in the office was (you get the idea) the day the grader's got to it. Imagine the natural wear on a person grading coins 8 hours a day, and you will also understand how inconsistencies occur.

Beautiful 63+ with a shot at 64. Seen much worse than this in a 64 holder. 
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Hits on cheek and chin hold this one to MS-63.
I wouldn't rush to send this in depending on what your goals are. I generally prefer to use my $ to buy more coins rather than pay for grading.

Very nice coin. As a CC mint, I would definitely slab it.

i think it would come back as a MS63. slabbing? all depends on what you want to do with the coin. the difference between 62 and 63 is only about $30 so if you are looking at selling it, its not worth the cost of slabbing. if you are keeping it then why slab it, just put it in an airtight

63, I wouldn't slab it.

Despite some views on pro grading, if you decide to sell it on ebay or a similar platform your likelihood of an easier sale are enhanced with the coin in a slab. Personally I wouldn't buy any raw coins online.
