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."

MS62. The reverse will hold the coin back from being PL.

MS-62. Not a terrible buy for what you paid. Nice example!

I would say a low-end MS-62. All the roughly parallel hairlines on the reverse make me question its surfaces.

MS62. Crack it out of that plastic clown suit when you receive it.

I can't take credit for that one @Coconutjoe. Someone else coined that phrase and it stuck with me.
