MS-62. The coin might have QC'd at the grading company.

Common date, not much appeal to a collector of this series.

Where would the questionable color be? I see mixed alloy. You have a good amount on your ebay.  You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think.

Nice example of an S-4, the top of the misplaced digit is clearly visible in the denticles below the 5.
I'm suspicious that the obverse has been burnished and recolored, and the reverse may have been recolored as well.
The area around the ear, and the lock in front of the ear, are my main concerns. I think I have an S-4 in my own collection; if so I can see if mine has the same shallow strike in those areas.
Unc Details (63BN) if it's been recolored or otherwise altered; straight grade 63BN otherwise.

Looks 63bn. I like the look of this one.
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."

That's a beauty. MS-64 BN. Nice original color in my opinion with traces of red.
