I don't have it in hand but will update when I get it. Thanks for your comments.
I have some concerns about porosity in the obverse surfaces. Will check it carefully when I get it.
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."

AU-50, and the colour does look pretty odd. I would think Details from those pictures.

To me, the surface texture of the coin looks odd.

AU-50 details. I question the surface color which looks like a cleaning. Also the surface shows some minor pitting.

AU-50. That may be porosity on the coin. Hope not.
