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."

This coin came home with me from the ANA Summer Seminar. I really like these mid grade coins because they still have lots of detail left, and they are easier on the wallet than AU or unc. coins. Before   After   Side note: If you haven't been to the Summer Seminar, I HIGHLY recommend it. It is an outstanding program and you will learn a lot! |

Problem-free mid-range Barber coins are well worth their value and not very easy to find. Plus they're beautiful coins, although I'm partial  Awesome quarter upgrade! |

In addition to the Seated dollar I got over the summer, my parents surprised me with this coin for my birthday...   I'm down to only two holes left! |

Nice job! Pics of the Seated dollar would be great! I may have missed it's own thread. |

I got this as a gift from my coin club for some of the work I've done with them last year. The addition of this 1831 Bust Quarter leaves only the second Seated dollar to complete my set...   |
