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."

FR-2 so those marks on the bust probably details the coin but when they get to the lower grades sometimes they let issues like that slide.

bandsdean nailed it. Yes it's FR2 and yes it might be given a pass on the marks for its age and level of wear. This is a similar piece that got a pass at PCGS for obverse marks and sold for details money anyway: https://www.greatcollections.com/Co...r-PCGS-AG-03 |

I'm seeing this coin again....I raised the price on this one to $50 last night. It will straight grade FR2 all day. Possibly PO-01. Good looking coin for the level of wear.

No details on this puppy, just honest circ wear and damage/scratches that go with any FR-02 coin.
