I know nothing regarding the cac but you have a nice 64, perhaps even 65 common date there. Nice and clean just like she was meant to be. Congrats
You do realize it's in a 66 holder, right?
The only answer to the OP's question is "maybe". Anyone that thinks they can split grading hairs from photos online is kidding him/herself.
Tilt it back a bit and then photograph it again... There are too many dark areas to see the surfaces. If what I am interpreting to be contact marks are contact marks, then no bean for you.

I can't speak for gradeflation. I'd buy it as a 64 as that's what it is. Could care less about the cac but if it makes you happy I'll go with no.

Wooooha! Did someone just say it's officially "TACO™" Tuesday????
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
Looks like nice original white luster and if JA sees anything that distracts like the cheek, which I don't see a fingerprint, I would say don't bother. JA likes toning, DH wrote about this when JA started NGC. Anyways if you had a circle of tone on the coin it would CAC without it your coin has to be 100% all there original.
You got nice original "white luster" on the devices and a picture about as good as I can take and in my GTGs I had to make a rule "No more; I can't see the coin" excuses. Best Regards, Michael
I'm surprised people are responding with definitive answers those images aren't showing anything close to what you'd need to see to have a strong opinion (IMO )

Based on the pictures, I would say it would not be stickered.....I could change my mind if I saw it in hand...Cheers, RickO
Can't tell much from the photos.

Can't really tell from your pics. It looks flat with no luster. The cheeks looks like a lot of bag marks, My guess would be "no" !!!
Hard to say from those pictures...

I think what looks like a fingerprint on the cheek would keep it from stickering, but I could be wrong

Hard to tell, will try to get better pics.
No I don't think it would CAC

What is on the cheek?
If the coin is actually bright white, well struck and that and/or the mark I see in the left field are on the plastic, send it in.
Looks kind of dull and washed-out.
May just be the images.

I doubt it
Unless the cheek activity is on the plastic, I believe the coin is a 65 and not a super nice one.

my thoughts exactly !
I don't like the cheek for CAC but the image probably doesn't represent the coin as it looks in hand, I'd imagine.
