MS for me. Still don't know how to gauge the 60 to 70 rating. But if I would, I would say 64

That cheek is awfully clean. I'm at 64. Uncertain on a dip since the luster seems disturbed.

UNC details due to a Jewel Lustre dip. Probably was a nicely toned AU/Unc coin at one time.
People can't leave these things alone and screw with them "to try to make them look better"!

Thanks everyone. I suspected that this coin was cleaned at some point, but just wanted to check that I wasn't the only one who thought it was cleaned.

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."
