What a beauty. I am going to say au58 with a slightly weak strike and some rub on the eagle's wing tips, eagle's head and talons. I would also expect booming luster from a choice or gem unc coin.
Should sell for a substantial premium based on eye appeal.
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."

Lovely coin. I think there's enough rub to hold it to an AU-55.

The coin has too much direct light. All I can tell is that the coin is a minimum AU-58

Sold as ANACS MS60 Old Holder DDR no slab pic provided, I would say AU58 if cracked and resent to PCGS or NGC. |
