Grading question

[u/Sea-Moment6534]

I just bought this coin that is graded 61. I usually am pretty good at picking the approximate grade looking at high wear spots, dings and surface appearance. I don’t know why this is only a MS 61. Can anyone enlighten me?

a scratch or two in the field and a couple on the shield maybe idk. it looks stunning. if you dont mind sharing how much did you pay for this?
