I'm at VF-30. Date and stars are quite strong but high point wear shows moderate circulation. Love the color of this coin.

the scratch's on the obv appear to be from circulation as they are totally toned over however, I dont think it would grade straight.
I'm at VF25 details (scratched)

I'm at obverse VF-20, reverse F-15, net VF-20, details 98 code (damage).
I see two things that lead me to call it details. The first is a corrosion spot removed from the reverse, at the left upper shield. The second is possible graffiti on the obverse, visible both in the left obverse field between Liberty and star 3 and in the right obverse field between the middle curls and stars 11-12. Some of the scratches near the clasp and lower curl also look a bit more intentional (v-shaped) than circulation contacts.
The toning looks mostly original, and there is a nice circulation cameo. Details or not, this is a decent coin.

Fun coin - it's not a 4 punched over a 1, an engraver has added lines to change the 1 into a 4. She has a good face, and original surfaces. A TPG might grade this VF25, details. |

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 lightened and played with the contrast on this photo (sellers). I thought the "W" scratched into this was quite obvious. The "V" looks intentional as well. Was surprised to see this straight graded and with a CAC sticker to boot.   Edited by adam126402
