Just FYI that is not damage on the obverse. It's a strikethrough error.   |

AU-50? I'm not a fan of this one with the dark and subdued toning but the tick on the cheek would be the deal breaker for me.

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."

Seems very original, but with soft high points and no indication of luster, I just can't go AU.

I'm inclined to agree, although I suspect CAC would rather like it at EF45.  |

I like the toning on the coin and its surfaces are very clean and far above average. The
strike through on this coin IMO kept this coin out of a higher grade and will also keep it
from reaching its full potential pricewise. Do you have a grade Mike ?
