Hello to all!! and advice needed with Morgan

Hi Everyone,
I've been lurking for awhile and finally decided to log-in.
I mainly deal with Canadian coins but I do have a few high grade US coins that I must someday send to PCGS for grading, as we have no Professional Grading service in Canada for US material.
Anyway, below is a pic of my best Morgan. My question to the experts is, I feel it is an ms66, but how many think it could go ms67? (or am I way off even thinking it is an ms66?) There is a mark in the field in front of the chin. Also, on the reverse, there are marks on the breast feathers and a mark in the field to the left of the left wing.

    Red X. You have the link pointing to your own hard drive.

    Looks like you tried to copy the file path of your image right into your post. You need to upload it first. If it's less than 50K, upload it here on the CU server. More than 50K, try www.photobucket.com

    Nice toning, cheek appears to be clean, a lot of rub on the hair, breast looks a little flat.

    I like the coin, larger pics would help. image

    I've given up on the pic deal here. This sites software is way too old. Posting pics here is nothing like anywhere else.

    Looks like a nice morgan, I just hope the AT/NT guys don't show up. LOL

    BTW welcome DE!!!!
    Love the 1885-CC Morgan

    Is that your pic?
    If it is you're on to something capturing the color.
    Looks nice.

    O.K.
    Your obverse photo is already sized correctly for an avatar.
    You just have to wait til the 15th of the month to upload it.

    Welcome.

    Hard to tell from the small photos, but the strike looks too weak for MS66. Perfect everything else, PCGS will max it out at MS65, imho.

    Welcome aboard- the pics are too small for any sort of reasonable guess on the grade... image
