I was able to get a hold of my brother's small collection from when he was a kid to do some evaluating and maybe offer to buy some of them from him. I'm still trying to figure out my new phone's camera so, hopefully the pics are sufficient. Thanks!   In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

AU-53. Typical strike, lots of remaining luster.

Thanks for the comments!
It does have very nice original luster and really no hints of toning. The yellow tint in those pics is from overhead lighting. I have no idea when he got it (maybe the late '80s?) but, it was in a dealer 2x2 labeled "XF" and a $7.50 price. I thought it looked maybe a little better than XF.
So, if low to mid AU, it's probably worth $20-$25?

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."
