Man, I hate to crack this out but this coin will look so good in my album, especially, if I can find a well matched sister with motto! I'm second guessing so there is time to talk me out of it. Anyway, I'll post the grade in 48 hours. Coin looks smoother and cleaner than images.

This coin is a dead-ringer for a VF25 piece I used to own. Nice circulated cameo appearance.

VF25. Very nice! 
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."

VF-30, nice original tone with a circulated cameo that I always love.
I wouldn't break it. Take the photos you have, print them on photo paper, stack them back to front, insert into space.
You still see the ringer and keep the encapsulation.

VF30 Here are the steps. 1) Before you break it out. Take pictures of the coin in the entire slab front and back showing the TPG'ers bar code ID number in the slab. 2) Print out 3"x 5" pictures. 3) Break that beauty out. Set her free! 4) Scotch tape the bar code tab from the slab onto your picture. 5) Put a clear 8" x 10" sleeve with 3" x 5" slots in the back of your Dansco. 6) Insert the pictures into the clear slots. 7) Do #3 very carefully!

I actually like that idea better than the usual advice, which is to tape the label to the inside of the album binder.  Quote: 5) Put a clear 8" x 10" sleeve with 3" x 5" slots in the back of your Dansco. I think this is what you need, right? http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/pro...-pocket.html
