I emailed this seller asking if it's real, and why not send to a TPG? He says he's in Hawaii after a terrible storm, needs the money now and can't afford to certify. What do you make of this one? https://www.ebay.com/itm/137692862581 |

One look fake
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."

Yes, fake for sure. It'll be interesting to see if it goes over $500, then it will fall under the new ebay authentication process. |

The first listing nss-52 cited - a "1787 Fugio Cent" - carries the ebay authenticity guarantee. But the seller knows they are fakes. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
