VF30? The glare is really distracting. You may want to turn off the flash and post better pics.

Tough one. I think the flash is supposed to show underlying luster. It seems to be XF-40 from what I can see. Nice coin Steelers.

Seated dollars with motto are tough, I will go as high as 45, but glare does make it hard to be sure. dick Osburn recommends grading these by the reverse because of strike issues with the obverse shield.

vf25 obv xf40 rev vf30 net and attractive for the grade. 
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."

I guess I am going to go with XF45, that's higher than anyone else so far...

I would say xf-45 but the color isn't dark enough for it to be original. It's been worked on but will grade straight.
