Picked this up at the local flea market this weekend. Looks MS but wondering what grade you would put on it? Sorry pics are a touch blurry but my camera doesn't take good close ups.   |

There is a lot of glare and blur which is making it harder for me to accurately decide a grade. My first guess is a solid 64, which a shot at 65 if luster is booming and there aren't too many distracting marks on the obverse especially the face and cheek. If you can do better pics in natural light and a glare free area it'd help.

62 with a shot at 63. Nice reverse.
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."
