Yes

 

yes.

 

Psssst, it already did.

 

I'm reading that tag on there.
It says "MS 64"
So, yeah.

(Sarcasm off) with the kind of hits and scratches it has, I would say that grade's appropriate, if only judging from the obverse image here. Which we shouldn't.

 

I think he was trying to confirm the grade was appropriate.

 

I know I’m just trying to say if it looks better than average. To me it looks like it has a little to many scuffs for 64...

 

If the powers that be have deemed it as such, then so be it. But the real question is, do you believe it to be so? The end all resides with you, my friend.........

 

It did and I feel they got it right. I might change my opinion if there was a reverse image.

 

I just added it

 

Right. I am tempted to think it's a 63, but I have seen PCGS assign 64 to Peace Dollars that look like this...

 

Based SOLELY on looking at this side, not a great idea as @mlov43 indicated above, yep, I see a 64 here. I usually don't do this, and recommend against it, but if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to take my opinion out to a farther level of discrimination than "just 64", I would say that is PROBABLY among the lower half of 64's at this service, but if I saw the other side, I could just as well change that opinion.

 

The reverse has the hits of a 63 but also shows how nice the luster is. I'm still ok with 64.

 

This video enlightened me to PCGS's take on coin grading (emphasis on silver is here):

 

I think the TPG's are easier on Silver Dollars because of "bag hits" during shipping.

 

crack it out, resubmit it and hope for a lower grade ???

lol

 

Lol

 

Peace dollars generally have all kinds of scuffs in MS grades. For my money, it’s an unusually nice coin when they don’t.

 

That looks fine for a Peace dollar as a 64. Most of what you see on the cheek area is very likely frost breaks and not actually scruff

 

The question is superfluous, as the coin is already in the PCGS market at MS64. Maybe there are some redeeming factors if you see it in-hand--woops, I mean, in-plastic--but if not, it's a lower-end bid at that grade, pretty obviously.
