    65 without the ding.... but the question is what's the ding deduction.

    I'll say 1...64

    I'd say definitely details, scratched.

    ms64. Don't know if the scratches are enough to warrant "details/scratched." BTW that's an 1884 Morgan not a 1894 per the thread title. You had me excited.

    The scratch above the 3 left stars appears to be from a staple, and it would definitely cause a no-grade. The gouge on her cheek doesn't look like anything that may have happened either at the Mint or while in bag storage. It's too straight, so I would think it might be considered damage, too.

    Not even on it's worse day is that a 65 with that distracting mark on the cheek, the scratch under the chin, and behind the bonnet.

    Details, Scratched maybe a Damaged, no grade.

    UNC details at P/N/A; Numerical grade at SEGS, etc.

    It looks like the moon at a particular phase with the lighting.

    1884 Anacs or Icg would grade it and not body bag it due gouge or obv scratch.
    MS-63 but maybe MS-64 as the rev is very nice.
    but also maybe detailed as scratched or die gouge or even a Vam if Anacs grades all MD w/Vam detail for free.
    you never know mood the graders will be in when they look at this one if you get graded.

    Is that circulation wear in the hair above ear and above eye -- and on eagle's chest?

    Melt too much damage if it were any other date. Details AU because of what it is.
