This the first of some additions to my type set today. Would appreciate thoughts on grade. Also guess price paid. Third party grade and price paid revealed in 24 hours. Thanks for playing!   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."

 AU-50 and you have great taste in coins. This is what an uncleaned original coin looks like. |

The obverse has an EF-45 look to it while the reverse is solidly an AU-50 or 53. I imagine that it is in an AU-50 holder.
It's nice original looking coin, and these pieces are harder to find that one might think.

I'm at EF-45 as well, but wouldn't be surprised to see it in a 50 holder. Most attractive.

Paid $99 for this coin. Thanks for playing. Seems like the CCF field was just about right on this coin again.  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.
