F-12 sounds right - the reverse is better.

I'd think it would make VF [even before I saw bill's post]. Need better photo of the obverse. Question is, which variety (of the 4 majors plus "spike") is it?

I'm going on a limb and will vote for VF-25. There looks to be good hair detail and leaf detail on the reverse.

In the old days, no way this was better than Fine. Today, VF would not surprise me, even though I would vigorously disagree.

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."
