I've been looking for a decent example of this coin for a while, but in my neck of the woods good ones are pretty hard to find. I was able to pick this, nicely toned one up yesterday. My opinion is MS63 or 64, but there appears to be what could be a rub in the eyebrow, cheekbone area, so MS might be out the window. What do you all think.

That's a beauty! I don't see any wear on the cheek or collar that would indicate AU, but I'm not a grading pro. Very nice coin, congrats. =)

It's a beautiful eye appeal example.

You have the coin in hand so only you can tell if there is a break in the luster on the suspected rub spots.

I'm not seeing anything to indicate AU - but impossible to say based only on photos.

MS64 seems quite possible. Nice example.

[edit] - changing grade to MS63 due to what appears to be the lack of luster
