Picked this up but was unable to attribute it. The reverse has a unique T-I attribute as the second T in States, usually used to do attribution shows that the main vertical line in the T is re-cut pretty dramatically. I was not able to find a matching coin. Also love that the U in UNITED is oversized compared to the other letters in the word. Any help with the attribution would be appreciated.

Grading thoughts? Thanks!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

This looks like O-112 to me, which is R.2. I'd say AU53.

Thanks Adam. I agree that it seems to be a match but the second T in STATES still does not appear recut. But it seems close enough for now.

This came in and looks like the pictures. Seller's pics capture the color and surfaces better than mine but hide some light surface scratches. I would grade this AU50. Not bad for $226. Further thoughts? Thanks!
