Agree it looks gem - 65rb.  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."

Some collectors love woodies, others (like me) not so much. Not a coin I'd want to own.  |

If it got an MS grade I'm thinking MS62.
(Can't tell if the bow on the rev has some slight wear.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Depends on how ANACS grade woodies.
PCGS hates them.
I love them.
I'll go 64RB.

Hard photos to grade from. A guess on this one is MS-65RB.

the strike on this coin is sick. I'm not a fan of woodies either. MS65RB.

Looks like an MS65 to me, but Ill bet its in a MS63RB holder. I had an MS62RB ANACS 1888 Indian Head cent that I cracked out and sent to PCGS......came back MS65RB from PCGS. I think deals can be found in old ANACS holders for Indian Head cents. |

Can only grade the color, RB, from those photos but it certainly looks MS.
