Photos are a little blurry to decide AU or MS. Definitely cleaned.

au55 and very attractive  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."

AU-53 probably cleaned. More pics in different angles and lighting would be helpful.

This is a confusing thread ... the various photos keep appearing and I have no idea which set of photos represent the coin in as seen in hand.  I'm offering no grade opinion other than not less that AU. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

The most recent set seems to be the most accurate. I'm now leaning toward AU-58 straight, coin just doesn't feel MS.

I wouldn't bid on the coin in the first set of photos, if they were the only pics to go on.
I would bid on the coin in the second set, if they were the only pics to go on.
