This is really a neat VAM, I just haven't figured out which one yet, possibly a 58A or 50, but with that insane die crack on the obverse that I can't find anywhere, and a similar on the reverse. Sorry if the photos are a bit off, I took these using my proof-coin setup and these are not proof coins!

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."

39A, you nailed it. I need to get it graded so I can put it into the census.

Soft strike, but still looks like some light rub to me, so I'll say AU-58.
