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."

Agree both F-12, but they appear cleaned to me.

They do not look cleaned to me and the 2nd one clearly looks a higher grade.

Grades: coin 1  Coin 2:  These are both from the fun show. The second coin I purchased on the suspicion that is was undergraded. You guys helped confirm that.

I'm as far from an expert as you can get on early small eagle dollars, but I agree that the 2nd is undergraded in terms of technical grade.
