I'm thinking about buying this coin. It looks XF-45 to me, but I want to know what everyone else thinks about the grade. Is it worth $30?   |

It gets a details grade to me - I see light corrosion on the reverse.

XF45 seems about right. It's a very crusty example, typical of the series. $30 seems in the right range.

Decent strike, and fairly even wear, but I see EF Details because of the environmental damage on the reverse.

Looks like it may have spent some time in the ground. Surfaces on these coins are never granular. A pass for me too.

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."
