Steelers72 Pillar of the Community United States 1448 Posts	Posted 02/27/2017 6:34 pm This one looks like it could be AU. Seems to be original. What do you think, and what is its worth? Thank you!! Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11898 Posts	Posted 02/27/2017 6:39 pm Looks like high AU sharpness but way to many scratches in the most prominent part of the main device - the face. Not feeling this one. 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."

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/27/2017 8:22 pm Technical grade AU-50 or 53. But I agree that the prominent hits and scratches on the face would scare a lot of potential buyers away. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36826 Posts	Posted 02/28/2017 11:13 am Not sure I want to take a chance on a coin with these photos. Seems like they are trying to hide something. AU-58 if there are no surprises. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18684 Posts	Posted 02/28/2017 11:37 am I would grade it Mid AU. if they have a return policy and you dont mind paying return postage you can check it out but I suspect it will look different in hand Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 02/28/2017 4:40 pm AU-55 good shot 58. I'd inquire about luster. Bit dark for me. Edited by Coinfrog 02/28/2017 4:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
