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."

Well photographed and an excellent coin.  Nice eagle breast feather detail. Can't quite make my mind up if there is any wear in the hair over Liberty's ear. If you could, look yourself in high magnification, checking for mint luster on the high points in this area, and advise us. If any wear at all, then AU58. If full mint luster on the high points, then MS63, perhaps even a little more. |

53 maybe 55. It could be the lights playing tricks but it looks like a VAM-1E.

Looks MS to me, I'll say 63+. Where's the rub?

Id say 62. Not seeing any rub. Maybe the others are calling it AU because the coin seems to be lacking luster on the obverse. I think its just the picture... But very nice images and a nice coin! |

I am thinking MS-63 from those pictures.

To me the obverse and reverse don't go together (like they are of 2 different coins). The reverse looks like high 63 or low 64, but the obverse looks a little dull (not the eye appeal of the reverse). Maybe just the way the images were taken. Nice coin.
