53. Rim issues distracting but probably ok. Slight indication of cleaning in left obverse field and liberty, probably also ok. Nice look.
Overdate inside the 3?
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 details, obverse cleaned, rim damage. Net sharpness grade is 55 in my opinion, obverse having slightly better detail but slightly lower eye appeal.

I am at AU55. IMHO, this is a 58, but the rim dings hold it back.
NICE example!

AU-55 at a minimum, probable old cleaning but market acceptable.

The scratches isn't loudly noticeable in hand? You may have bought it with a good price.

Very nice looking coin .... I like it.
Perfect for a type set album.
ANACS has been very tough on these type of coins.
At least with the ones I have been sending in.
