65. Very nice.
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."

MorganGuy, beautiful coin, but one slight area of concern is the hair above the ear. Looks a little greenish and dark. Any thoughts if you have it in hand to examine? Thanks.

Thank you for the compliment numismatic. It appears to be some slight toning. The pictures don't really capture the true color because I took it with it being cloudy outside.

Very nice, a couple small hits above the eye, but I agree with MS-65. Looks like a VAM-5 if you're interested.

At least MS-65 - shot at 66 but it's really hard to go that high based on photos alone
