 but might get details from rim damage. Nice strike, though... close to AU/ |

EF-45. I don't think the rim scrape on obverse would detail it, although it's significant enough to lower value. Nice even original color and decent strike.

Net 40 due to obverse issues.
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."

also at xf45 sharpness. Rim issues might keep it from a straight grade.

Thanks, everyone. I was also thinking XF-45. Was just wondering what people thought about the obverse rim scrapes. They're not that distracting in hand, but clearly still an issue. I don't plan to send this in for grading.

EF40 for me also due to rim defects and other obverse "issues"

I think the rim issues are enough to pull a details designation. XF45+

XF45 was my first impression. Nice color.
