Grade and Issues? Thanks!   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."

The blotchy nature of the dark toning makes me suspicious that the coin has been dipped.
I tend NOT to apply grades to cleaned coins.

I think the comercial grade is EF-40. I almost always under grade these coins so I upped my initial reaction of Choice VF to EF.

VF-30, worried about discoloration at 6:00 on reverse. Don't see that cleaning up.

Another day of being just behind the Frog...
I agree with VF-35, and it's not evident that this has been dipped, although the huge contrast in colors in the protected areas would certainly indicate a wipe or two.
