Can't really see well enough to grade. Better lighting needed.
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."

It's round and has some kind of face and writing on the reverse, right?

Keep working on that lighting

My guess is what you see in the picture is what you see in person. It has Good-VG sharpness with environmental damage. The surfaces are dark and rough.

Finding anything dated before 1800 in the American series is not that easy these days.

Can't see enough to make sense of it but agree it's scarce in any event.

Its funny the less light I put on it the more detail shows up especially in hand, the direct lighting is killing it....unfortunately I have no indirect lighting set up at this time. ANACS did see enough on here to be able to attribute it.
Rest in Peace

Early US, even those not too lovely, can always find a home.

No excuses necessary.
