Possibly a little too much contact marks on the cheek and field for 63, although admittedly I've seen worse in 63 plastic. Nice strike, pretty white coin. I wouldn't pay 63 money for it- MS62
Not a huge price differential, in any event. Thanks for sharing.
being an optimist here. Excellent detail in hair over ear, and a beautiful early die strike. The bag marks will hold it down, but overall, that is a beautiful Morgan. A little spotty on the cap and a deep gouge in the eagle's breast may keep it from 65, IMO.
Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody.
I'm not sure what the normal strike characteristics are for that date, but I could see it going 64PL if that strike is atypically strong.

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

I think it's a 63 also. There's a bit of frost on the devices, but I don't think the mirrors would warrant a PL designation. Nice looking coin though.
I've had great transactions with people like: drwstr123, CCC2010, AlanLastufka, Type2, Justlooking, zas107, StrikeOutXXX, 10point, 66Tbird, and many more!
