I like the patina on this one. What do you think it graded?   |

Oh my. I'll lead with AU-50, though I expect to hear some 45's. Bee-yootiful.

AU-53. Truly exceptional strong even strike. Really brings up all the details. Plus, add a marvelous tone with some decent luster hiding in the tight spaces and you have one gorgeous coin.
This would certainly be one I would buy.

AU53. Light wear and moderate luster remaining.

While I don't have one, I have looked at a hundred or so recently to buy for my type set. I say 55. I hope I find one this nice. Pretty coin.

Yes Mike, I managed to win this one on auction. Overpaid a bit...someone tried outbidding in the live session. I will reveal the grade in 24 hours. I really like this one

I'd venture a grade around AU-55 also.

AU-50. Don't hate me but cleaned and nicely re-toned. I like this one!

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."
