On the obverse, it has the reed mark adjacent to his lips that's clearly visible in the image, but also has some minor chatter next to the I in Liberty that isn't as visible. Very minor ticks in the portrait. On the reverse, the fields are very clean, the shield is good, but there are a couple small hits to the tail feathers. Luster is good, but not "blow you out of your chair" level, and the strike is a bit weak.
I'm going MS65 on this one. Your thoughts?

The softness in the wing is a lighting issue. Looking at the coin, the thing that looks like a hit appears to be some kind of planchet flaking. Frankly, though, I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out.
