Amazing how clean that cheek is, considering all the marks on the reverse. The obverse is a 65 to me, but the reverse is holding this one back. MS-63, maybe a + on there

You had it at 64 and it came back 63+? Its just in between grades imo.

Don't take my grade comment as an indicator one way or the other on the grade from NGC. I have a list of my expected grades and a list of the actual grades, I'm just listing what I had it at.

I am at 65 on obverse, but the reverse held it to MS64.

You don't see too many coins where the reverse has more chatter than the obverse. Because of the lack of eye appeal on the reverse and the large contact mark on the obverse, I think this is an MS-64.

64+ maybe 65
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."

Looks like a MS64 or MS64+ maybe despite the obverse ding.
Great coin!

I think there's a bit more chatter in the fields than a 64. I'm at MS-63, old school BU SPL. Good eye appeal for the grade.

I'm at a solid MS64, reverse marks and spots keeping it back

This one got MS-64+*
Very surprised by the result of this one, I would have expect one or the other, but not both

Agree with MS-64, exceptional eye appeal. I wouldn't have any qualms though if a grader gave it 65 for that exceptional cheek. It's better than many slabbed 65's I've seen and is probably worth 65 money.
