VF-25 only becus LIBERTY is full, denticles OK but worn on obv low, stars have semblence of lines. If a bit more facial details it could push a EF-35

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."

Quote: BTW it's a V-Nickel not a V-Cent V cents is 5 cents in ancient roman parlance V nickel is often used but it is actually incorrect because that would imply 5 nickel and if each nickel is 5 cents then a V nickel would be 25 cents.

Thanks everyone. Honestly I didn't know whether it was nickel or cents, I didn't want to shine the light on my newbie status so I went with what was on the coin  Where would the mint mark be on this coin? Or does it have one? Thanks again.

This is a Philadelphia minted coin that does not have a mintmark. A mintmark on This coin would be placed below the dot to the left of the word CENTS.
