Obverse is well struck, reverse luster is subdued (likely from dipping) & the contact marks are relatively minor. I think it is Mint State but the reverse gives me pause. I'd guess MS62 with a shot at 63 if there are no luster breaks. If there are luster breaks it drops to AU55 IMO.

I agree. Better pics. MS6. Just a few too many scratches for 64

AU58
The coin has nice luster and there appears to be circulation rub on the center of the neck.

I stay at AU-58 even with the better photos. Looks like friction on the high points.

Grade is back, well is done at least. I like to not look until I get it back in hand, which should be on Tuesday. With the PCGS glamour shots, any opinion changes? I'll reveal the grade when I see it myself!  |

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 coin appears that it may have had a dip or a light cleaning in the past. I'm surprised PCGS didn't think it was a market acceptable cleaning, however.
Without seeing it in hand, it's difficult to be sure.
