Currently top tier certified in a problem-free holder. What grade would you assign. I am curious because my grade was way off. Thanks in advance.  |

Nice circulation cameo, the obverse looks better than the reverse. I'd give it a VG-10, although you could make a case for Fine.

F15
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."

Agree with Zurie on this one. I'm going with VG-10 but F-12 is a possibility. The thing that brings it down for me is the weakness in the reverse rims.

I would say f-12 maybe 10 but I'm not used to looking at these in lower grades. Shadowtrooper just posted one similar to this.

Have an 18 and a 19 raw that are very similar. Have them both pegged at 10 to 12

I think this one might sneak up and kiss a 12.

VG10 was my first guess. Knowing how TPG's grade these a Fine grade would not surprise me either. |

Glad I'm not going crazy.  My grade was VG10 also. numismatic student hit it at F15. I honestly thought it was a clerical error when I first saw the slab.  |

Generous grader for sure that day. No matter the grade it is a nice looking quarter!
