All these coins have about the same luster as the 1879. I took the picture of the 79 in full sunlight with a cheap camera and holding with hand. All the rest were taken with an expensive camera, setup, and lighting. Go figure!

63+/64. Great luster like the others but the area around the ear looks a little problematic. What is going on at the ear?
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."

Quote: What is going on at the ear? Rim hit just below the ear, but the glare on the ear is just the lighting. Thanks for all your assistance numismatic student.

Ms63, looks like it doesn't have the pop for a 4 or 5.

63 is generous on this one. But it makes it, I believe.
