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."

Large bust dime at a reasonable price. I think it is attractive.

NS - You usually seem well versed in your buying preferences so if you like it, that's the important thing.
But as I've often said, if you buy coins you LOVE, you will have a much happier marriage.

This came in today. Due to the obverse hair detail and reverse eagle feather detail it looks vg to me. I don't see indications of ED. Rims are weak but device details are strong.
