I like the color and details on this one. What do you think it graded?   |

Unc details scratched. Looks like there are several obverse scratches, most prominently near liberty's left bicep, and a cluster of scratches in the right obverse. There is also a prominent reverse scratch from the E in STATES to the eagle's beak. I would seek a better example. Unfortunate as the coin looks like it has a great strike and great luster.
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."

Hard to tell from the pictures but I would say between AU 58 - MS 62.

My guess would be MS62+, possibly 63.

MS61 by ICG. After closer examination of the scans, I can see what Ns is saying about the scratches. Particular in the right obverse field. May be worth taking a gamble to see if it looks better in hand.
