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 would grade 65. With the exception of the quarter's obverse, all other surfaces seem 65. On the quarter's obverse those are probably not marks but dirt spots, thus the 65 for that coin.

65, but just to be unique, I'll say 66.

 This is a head scratcher for me . At first glance of the Merc I said an easy MS . However the Washington quarter just didn't do it for me . As I hate going with the majority, I'll go with TheNickelGuy AU-58  |

I'm always gravitating to the other side of the fence too, but AU-58? Lol now that is rebellious! I-m going with MS-65 since I bet it is the Washington that holds the grade high and not the Merc.
