I think it looks very pretty and you should be proud to own it. Fix the image white balance so its color is true.

I know how difficult it is to get color correct. And although some Peace dollars have a golden hue to them I seriously doubt that is the true color.
Maybe if you turn the saturation or contrast down it will be more true to life?
Just sayin'

I fear I am gonna send this off, and be all excited and a month or so from now I will log in and check my grades and get an MS63. PCGS always breaks my heart!

I'd say you have a strong shot at 64, maybe even 65...the strike looks pretty strong, and the fields are nice. Just that one tick on the obv...
Good luck!!

Hard to judge lustre from the photos; but if it has strong original mint lustre, it should grade MS-65, I think.

If that gets a 63, it would have to be a 63+.

I think the OP's coin is a 64 with a shot at 65. But PCGS is very conservative with lofty grades for key dates.
However it turns out it is a nice example of a tough date.

Interesting pop numbers, Lance! I suppose with "track" like that this is going to be a harder PCGS-65 than I had at first supposed, I have to say...

The fields look very good- no distractions
Well above average Lustre for the date
The few hits on the obverse do not detract enough to hurt the grade
And perhaps the biggest plus is the reverse does not kill the chance of a 65- The Eagle looks good.
I like the chances for this coin- it is worthy of a 65

Only if I'm blind in one eye and don't happen to see too good out of the other eye.
IMHO, this coin comes back anything under a straight-away MS-65, and they graded this looking at their pop reports and past mistakes over looking at the coin, itself...
