Honestly, nothing jumped out at me. It was the first time really holding one of these in my hands and wanted to make sure!

Right. Genuine, grade G-06, but details (obverse scratch). Be careful.

The value is somewhere near $35-40, as it is a details coin. Not all old coins are worth much.

The wear characteristics are very consistent with a genuine coin which in addition, have proved that it does not have a dud core.

G6 Details, so basically what everyone else already said. That obverse scratch kills the coin in many ways.

I agree with above, but find it amazing the motto held up so well, usually the E is the first to go...

At G06, the scratch doesn't bother me much.

Agree with the others and seeing the edge of the coin would help.

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."
