XF40
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."

XF40 here also. It could go up or down 5 points easily.

XF-40 seems right. Nice, original, crusty CBQ!
oih82w8, does that RPL refer to the 25C denomination characters? They do look strongly repunched in the photo.

RPL (Repunched Letter(s)) Pick Up Point(s) (PUP) The "O" in OF is overpunched the "F" (O/F) and the decimal point is missing from 25C. The LDS (Late Die State) occurs when the die is about exhausted and the bisecting crack forms on the obverse across LIBERTY's bustline.
