Beautiful coin!
As a plastic surgeon I love good cheeks!
Once I pawed through some of the mountains of Morgans at a local show. It is amazing to me how few escaped without damage to the cheek. I think there should be a special Full Cheek (or Fat Cheek?) designator to help identify these special coins.
Not perfect, but pretty good without ascending to rarefied grades.
I think you’ve got the wrong cheek in mind.
Can't compare to those beautiful Proofs above, but pretty good for a business strike.
My one and only Morgan proof, with a purdy cheek! Damn these are hard to find! Nice coins boys.

My current Registry sets:
✓ Everyman Mint State Carson City Morgan Dollars (1878 – 1893)

✓ Morgan Dollar GSA Hoard (1878 – 1891)
What caused the lines on the cheek of the OP's coin where the toning is lighter?
Not easy finding clean cheeks…
