MS63BN. Love seeing the first branch mint cent produced by our Union. Some small ticks in liberty's face. The diamonds in the ribbon and the hair lock next to it appears weakly struck. No way that wear happens to that extent exclusively localized to that small area. The reverse may have more than 5% red to bring it into RB but the obverse seems to just have traces. Coin is dripping with eye appeal. Nice!
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."

Difficult to see the surfaces.
My guess is 62BN.
