I have a tough time grading these. I have a hard time determining what is circulation wear and what is just contact/bag marks. Do you think this dollar is uncirculated? What grade would you give it? Thanks for the help!

Nice coin, I'm going to say MS-62, due to the amount of contact marks.

I see no indications that the coin has been in circulation and agree with the MS-62.

Again, I'm not an expert but I'd say this one has nicer luster than your other one and fewer contact marks. MS 62

Thanks everyone! I gave $23 for it, so I think I got a good deal on it.
