Unc details - graffiti. There is a large W carved into the jaw of liberty. Rim ding near 'WE' in the obverse motto. Shame about the graffiti as the coin is otherwise very beautiful with clean fields, lovely color and luster.
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."

AU58. dont think the rim ding would warrant details. really hard to tell if the W was actually done intentionally

couldn't see the W on cheek well enough to render an opinion. Grade wise a nice AU-58. Love the toning.

AU-58, agree that W-shaped mark could be natural.

Full grade AU58, original surfaces and color; the mark on the cheek is barely noticeable to me and I do not think it would details the coin.
