Scratch at 1:00 o' clock on the obverse is barely visible in person.

Thoughts on a grade? Do you think that it has been cleaned? Thanks.

Assuming these pics show the colors correctly, then for sure the obverse has been cleaned.

Such a difference photos make. Anyone who says they can always grade accurately just with photos had better be using a big name auction house as their source for such photos.

I was leaning at 35 cleaned on first set.

I'm at 40 retoned nicely on the second set of photos.

I still like this tone even if it was dipped many years ago. In fact, I think it would make market acceptable.

looks about vf30 to me.
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."
