1908-D $10 No Motto - Grading Help

Currently debating if I should send this in for a regrade. Think it has potential for a 64 but wanted to get some thoughts.

Will reveal current grade shortly. Was last graded ~2010

    It's an attractive, original coin. I'd really rather give it a 58+ but wouldn't complain too much about a 62.

    Love the super duper strike on the Eagle, and the color!

    Very nice looking coin. I could see it in a 58CAC.CACG holder. Maybe PCGS 63.

    I think the coin would be maxed out as a 62.

    I like it as a 62. 64 would be a stretch. Love the color.

    Given that CAC approved it at MS-62, I’d leave it alone. The reverse looks to be better than 62, but obverse looks to have a slight rub on the high points.

    The coin is correctly graded at 62. Don't spend any more money trying for an upgrade.

    The fact that CAC sticker it as a 62 does not mean it is limited to that grade, if could go higher and it could sticker again depending on the weather
