its a hit from the side of another coin.

as for the grade I think this is a solid 63, and a very good shot at 64

MS-63, just a few to many marks to go any higher.

62-63 because of the hits. I know strike usually doesn't come into play, but I think the breast feathers are weak for a S mm.

Thanks for the info. Was just checking whether to include this one in a lot of other Morgans I have that have been cleaned. Appreciate the info.

I can see this one making MS-64 on a good day and in my opinion would be a high end MS-63 any other time. Its a beautifully struck coin (as most 1878-S Morgans are)
