What grade do you think this is? What is the blue on the observe, is that toning? I know the word "GOD" is stronger on the 1926-D's but I thought it especially stood out on this one.

I'll go 64 - hard to tell under the plastic from the holder

There's a telltale green tint on both sides. If it's on the coin you have PVC contamination.

64
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."

  I thought maybe it was under graded since it's in an early NGC holder and has outstanding luster and originality. Doesn't look like it's ever been dipped to me. The blue must have just been a reflection or something because I don't see it in hand.. so no PVC damage here.

I'd agree with the MS-63 grade
