What do you guys think of this one? I loved the original cats eye toning and the old NGC holder. Paid a bit more than I usually do close to full retail.

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."

There is something special about old holders. That coin probably went into the NGC fatty blast white, for that color is what is emitted from that early insert material. The coin is a nice 64, very pleasant. Congrats!

That is a beautiful lady and fantastic toning! As long as you are happy with what you paid for it, that is all that matters.
