Agree - lower right obverse field has clear issues.

MS64 - Becase of soft strike and low luster.

I am also teetering between 63 and 64. That is a real beauty!

MS63 for weak strike, better and it had a great chance of 64+ or even 65 I think.

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."

If you picked it up for 63 pricing I think you did very well. Personally, I would have placed it at least at a 64 but knowing how PCGS is hard on this issue my guess was teetering between 63 and 64. It is a very nice example!

I think 64. I only have one other 63, and it is not as nice as this, especially next to one another. I have to say I was pleasently surprised to see the coin in hand. I bought it on ebay. The seller had the trueview pic but also some others that made the coin look a little rough.
