Those are three drastically different photo sets. As displayed, I'm thinking it will exaggerate the smallest potential problems. First set had me immediately thinking cleaned, although not on the next two sets.
For the sake of a conservative opinion, I'd say Uncirculated, details, cleaned.
Still a huge bit better than most. Congratulations.

I would think MS-63, but with no call on surface originality.

Wow! I was bidding on that one but dropped out early. If you send it in let us know how it turns out.

Any hairlines on this coin are an incidental scrape against something; you would not arrive at surfaces of such complete consistency with a coin that needed cleaned unless you spent half an hour brushing it in which case it'd be rather more obvious. The surfaces might be adjudicated scratches, but in my opinion "cleaning" is out of the question.
It has a shot at 63.

So apparently this is the small letters variety. Whoops! It's been 24 hours so I cannot change the title.   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 the spirit of beating a dead horse (  ) for which there appears to be an icon, I received some coins back from a TPG submission so updating some old threads. Thanks for all your help!
