Looks 63pl to me ex post. Nice coin.
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."

The frost looks really nice and the reverse vertical striations appear to be die polish lines. Would have guessed MS-63PL based on the first photos. The cheek scuffs look much worse in the graded-coin photo.

Is this possibly a VAM-10? I think I see the diagnostic die scratch on the upper lip.

I would say: MS63+, but CAC doesn't give out "+", MS64 it is..


CAC does indeed hand out the + designation.
