looks overdipped and stripped of most of its luster. au details cleaned.
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 think AU would still have its luster. I would grade EF.

It looks AU50/53 to me and possibly cleaned. Do post some images that are truly representative of the coin when you get it in hand.

Thanks everyone! To be honest I think the lack of luster is due to over photoshoping the photos to get rid of glare.

I'm AU. I think I see a little toning around the rim, so will hold out judging the level of cleaning until we get new pics.
