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."

Single railroad track on obverse and reverse. Rich luster. Lovely peripheral toning.
Although this is the easiest Morgan to find in high grade, I like this one more than most. MS-66+.

MS65, very attractive toning, semi-prooflike.

Thanks Everyone Quote:
Very nice raw pick (again) Thanks, I picked up a couple more as well. I'll have to post them, it's been a while since I have shared some Morgans. Quote:
Don't the marks on the neck make it 63 The marks on the lower part of the neck, and right below the chin? They are part of the Morgan dollar engraving. They probably look more pronounced because of the strong strike and lighting. |
