numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11976 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:03 pm Almost have a full roll of this Philly date. Thoughts? Thanks! 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."

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3746 Posts	Posted Today 7H 47M ago Nice 1885. The reverse is frosty. I'm at a net MS-63 here. On the obverse, the cheek scruffing seems more like the usual bag friction than deeper hits except for the edge knock running diagonally from the crease of the lips across the ear. That's a deeper contact, and is visually in a noticeable place. The rest of the obverse has a few small dings on the cap curl, nose, and neck. Overall, the obverse just makes MS-63. The reverse is stronger. I see a couple minor contacts on the eagle's right wing (our visual left) and on the bow. The fields have some contacts below the eagle's left wing (our visual right) and between "ICA" of AMERICA and the wreath. What I notice most on the reverse are several smaller rim dings. The fingerprint is a bit distracting. Overall, the reverse is a high MS-63 or MS-64. IMHO this easily nets to MS-63. Again, nice frosty 1885. It's less baggy than many of its companions.
