What a great example! These little boogers are hard to grade, they're so tiny. I'd say MS63, but I'm not expert on them.

63. 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."

I have never tried to grade one of these before. I'm a 3 cent silver virgin grader. The details on the obverse lines matter most likely and this coin is a beauty with outstanding lines on the obverse. Although I know little about the series, I'm willing to bet striking this tiny coin was problematic. I bet getting MS coins with great line details on the obverse is very hard (think of the full steps of Jefferson nickels or full bell lines of Franklin halves as examples). MS64. |

Nice Type I example....rim ticks and contact marks prevent it from GEM status
MS-63+ IMHO
