Yes, I use cleaned...bodybag a lot but only if the coins pictured deserve it. Thats what PCGS does also. I don't want people to get their hopes up and send in a coin and get a bodybag.
Yours is keeping it from a 66 in my opinion because of the darker friction spot on the high points of the obverse (jaw) and the eagle on the reverse. It has killer luster but the friction spots keeps it from a higher grade in my opinion.
Cameron, I like it much better when you give reasons why a coin deserves a grade or the bodybag designation. As for this coin, I've been around long enough (now) to know when to get my hopes up. And I certainly don't have much hope for this coin. It does look much better in hand and has a shot at 66, but I won't be sending it in. I did however, send in 4 other coins from the same roll that are in much better condition.
