Thought this one had reasonable eye appeal. What do you think NGC said?   |

xf 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."

EF details, scratched. If it is problem-free, shame on NGC.

XF45 sharpness but the gouge and the scratch left of the bust SHOULD details-grade it.

I think I see a circle or balloon shaped scratch under the chin and left of the neck. It is fainter than the two scratches, but I think it is there.

AU50. hard to say if it would grade straight as it looks like an old cleaning and re-toned over the years so it may be acceptable
