I am going to crack this out for my 7070, but before doing it, I thought it might be fun for you to see what MGC grade this one.   |

Nice original surfaces, honest wear, excellent non-gaudy tarnishing - Wicked nice add, mac!

VF-30 is what I'd grade it.

It's a pancake reverse strike, which distorts the detail.

obv vf35
rev vf30
I think this is a details coin. The surfaces should not be shiny like that and I don't think it is luster. Net vf details questionable surfaces.
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."

Do they still use XF45? That's what I think. Love this type coin design.

Super flat strike. Actual sharpness probably a bit better than it looks, so I'll go XF40. Not sure if original toning or cleaned and retoned, but either way, it will look great in a type set!
