MS66 could be 67. Remarkably mark-free except in the body of the sun, Well-struck with beautiful luster.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. 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."

65. When you look at the pictures magnified there are little nicks all over the surfaces.

TPG's are pretty picky with common date WLH's.
I'm not a toner guy and this one shows a little bit too much terminal toning on the obverse for me...jmho.
One of the few examples I've seen where the obverse is nicer than the reverse as far as ticks and nicks.
As Marve65 points out...a little too ticky.
Great luster contrast.
Too ticky for a GEM grade.
MS-64
Nice coin!

a little too much glare may be altering the real color of the toning or any surface flaws.

Lots of photo glare in the reverse photo. Looks like some friction on the high points of the eagle's feathers. With these photos I'd say AU-58 slider.
