I agree with 64. I do not see enough luster or a strong enough strike to go higher.

65
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."

65. Exceptionally clean cheek and fields. Luster can be muted with pics. But I'm staying with my initial thoughts at 65

MS-65, agree that luster might be suppressed by the lighting.

MS64. the overall look of the coin is a little too dull and luster appears to be broken in areas which for me would keep it from 65

Borderline of 64/65. I think the strike will hold it back a bit for the date and mint mark so I'll say 64+.
