I'm happy with how this coin is graded. I'm very fond of the coin.   |

VF30. Nice low mintage coin.
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."

Looks like VF-25
Hope they gave her VF-30.
I can't believe what a low mintage this is!

had to come back to this one as it really stood out to me.
finding a nice, original, mid-VF 20c piece takes some time looking through a lot of them. if I was in the market this one would call out to me to buy it

It is in fact on the market: https://www.ebay.com/itm/287053535641I thought it was generously graded just because the overall coin is so pleasantly free of distractions. Technically it's probably VF30, but someone gave it a bonus.  |

congrats on the grade. it was borderline 30/35 and deserved to be bumped.

Sold at $711. I was hoping it might reach $850, but perhaps my love of 20c pieces isn't very widely shared.

Looks like it was purchased by one of the big ebay coin dealers/flippers. It will be sold again soon and will likely fetch a much higher price. |
