    I'm gonna go with MS65 Could be 66 but I think the hit to the eye lid and over the ear may hold it back.

    MS63, although it's hard to tell with the pictures.

    The cut over the eye I think is the issue on this one. I'd still squeeze it into gem. It depends on the weight the graders give that.

    Do you know the VAM?

    I'm seeing all kinds of distracting spots on her cheek. Some contact marks above the eye and what appears to be a small scratch on the obverse (10 o'clock).

    The spotting is the most distracting. Could be from a bad rinse after dipping. MS63 would be my grade.

    The reverse is cracked up along the lettering. It's a VAM for that year, I just don't know which one. I like it a lot. The reverse is trying real hard to tone in the central region and is taking its time about it. The luster grazes on the cheek jpcienkus noted are overlooked on these a lot of the time when the fields are as clean as for the most part on this one, at least, that's been my observation. It's a market thing, you know. That's all.

    Good eye eddie... im a huge fan of letter transfer on morgans... theres a.clashed I,N,M,S,T,D and the elusive E clash under the tail feather.. this one has it all! Ucant really see it good in the photo.. i will try to capture the.clashed areas better this evening...this coin has some really neat features!

    It's a very interesting coin, heavycam.monstervam. One of the first things I noticed on the reverse is the tail feathers area is struck rather weakly. Good luck on it. It has a lot going on. I hope you can get it attributed.

    Is the grade going to remain a mystery?
