Finally picked up this variety for a decent price. It looked like a fairly nice coin on ebay, but I wasn't sure about the color/spots. Are these spots acceptable? When do they become a problem? These are the best I could do with photos.     |

I have one that's almost in the same exact condition. I love this variety and I wouldn't worry too much about the spots. It is what it is...enjoy.

For such a hard to acquire variety the spots wouldn't bother me too much. Cool eye gouge!

Looks low end MS. I agree about the spots. Don't think they detract from the eye appeal

Really nice example of an S-4!  I'm on board with everyone else here, I wouldn't be concerned about the spots. |

Updating an old thread. I used some Verdi-care on this coin and it helped a lot with the spots. Submitted to PCGS and this is how it came back:  |

Congrats!  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."
