Bargain (i.e. junk) bin purchase ($7) but I think it makes VG details at least. The obverse scratch is not nearly as noticeable in hand, but it's still there regardless. All letters of LIBERTY are visible except the LI but the reverse is a bit weak in places.

VG10 details - scratched
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."

VG details like many others see. Not much eye appeal with the spots and scratch.

VG details, scratched and in addition to that flattened by something heavy. The apparent "wear" is actually post mint damage that flattened the design details. Sorry, but this coin is a "junk box" item.
