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."

One of only 8 in mint state!
Roster of highest graded ones-
PCGS SP-66, Silver Plug #00001794
CACG MS67 (Yes, CACG is more recent but their grades are accurate. This coin was long ago in an old MS66+ PCGS) PCGS MS66+ #40267935 PCGS MS64 #02407861 PCGS MS63+ #06641391 PCGS MS62+ NGC MS62+ 6345596-001(this coin) NGC MS61 #2116746-001 PCGS AU58+ #82928287 PCGS AU58 NGC AU58 PCGS AU55+ NGC AU55 PCGS AU50 NGC AU Repaired PCGS AU Tooled, plan flaws, corroded, cleaned.
These are all of the AU or higher examples.
Recent sale prices for coins near this- NGC MS61(upgraded to MS62+, this coin)- 12/20 $1,050,000 PCGS MS63+ 11/25 $4,500,000 Given this, and the sales of XF and AU examples in the last few years around a million, I think this coin will sell for around 2.25 million. My guess- $2,075,000
