Don't see this as RD with carbon spots and darkish area in feathers on obverse and corresponding darkish area below CENT on rev. No way. PM me with side bets up to $20.

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."

Of course I don't know if it graded RD or RB but if I was a betting man I'd take that one in a heartbeat. Many bronze coins up to 10% brown grade RD and the OP's coin looks 95% red to me. Now NGC might well have have tough on it and graded it RB, but for reference here's a few PCGS gems and near gems that all graded RD.  |

Agree this is a nice coin. This one could be full red, but would like to see it in hand. It looked pretty dark on and around the shield in the original pics. Given that the date is fairly common, I would choose one that doesn't have so many dark oxidation specks.
