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."

Or perhaps artificially toned inside the holder. There has been speculation on many coin forums about certain ebay sellers.

This coin is for sale on Great Collections if memory serves. My thinking was that someone took a blowtorch to it.

Anyone who pays MS63 price for that will have an unpleasant surprise when they try to sell it down the line.
The general consensus here was against MS.

The coin sold at Heritage in September 2016 for $1410.00. When I looked up the cert number at NGC, there is no photo.

The price paid was at the low end of the typical range for grade. maybe because the coin looks like a dead ringer for in holder gassing.
