VF20 Cleaned
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."

Yeah, I'm disappointed with this one. I bought it online but checked the cert on the NGC site. The NGC site had pics but they showed nothing like these. I feel like the NGC pics are like those questionable ebay sellers and very misleading. It's the last time I use the NGC photos to form any type of judgement. That's the first time this happened to me with NGC but, man, it really makes me question these 'expert' graders.  |

i had it at VF25 cleaned also. however, I think since however it was cleaned it was not harsh they may have overlooked it since there was no intent to deceive and it was a light clean up which toned over

NGC has the worst photos. I learned awhile ago not to rely on their pics. Most of the time they are crummy pics that make the coin look worse than it really is. Sorry about your coin.
