30. Obv better than rev.
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."

in 1917 the Denver Mint experienced production problems, including die damage and over&-polishing. the Mint was resuing dies that had been in service for a while that resulted in soft details on high points such as the bison's horn and mane.

i always have a challenge when you have these mint issues as to how a TPG would look at them.

i found a PCGS XF45 that actually looks similar to yours. I think yours is better than VF30. based on how this one looks it seems that the TPG is adjusting their assessment due to the mint issues. I've seen this quite a bit on the early bust halves
