What do you grade this one at? Would the chatter on the obverse fields warrant it a details grade? Thanks for all help   |

 . This is not an attractive example. If you tried to sell this coin with those photos you have a lot of back clicks in one second. |

I don't care for the OBV tone...the REV is better, but...I have a feeling that it would warrant a details grade for an apparent cleaning.

UNC details scratched
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."

Tell us about all those scratches - on the coin or the holder, or both?

That's been harshly cleaned and retoned. I've seen ones like it in hand. The splochy toning looks like gunk in hand.
