My thirteenth entry into the list, acquired 18 days shy of our nation's 250th birthday. It is my thirteenth entry, a coin that represents the independence of thirteen colonies which chose to unite and seek to become one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. #12 - The 1776 Continental CURENCY Dollar in Pewter, Newman 1-C 
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've got 2 of the 50, both happen to be in ANACS soapboxes (and, maybe not coincidentally, both I believe to be a bit undergraded, but that's a topic for another day).
