 Maybe AU-53 based on considerable remaining luster. Nice look, semi-key date, great photos. I'd be tempted at the right price!

AU58. I don't see any contact other than in the hair above the ear. Weaker strike than normal.
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."

Perfectly normal on a weakly struck coin.

AU53 good chance at pulling a details designation. the long swipe marks around the date are not from natural circulation they are too long

Pazaldi: I beg to differ on that point. Not only are such marks common on circulated Morgans, I know exactly what they are from ... the grab-roller mechanism in the old slot machines in Vegas. These were in use for awhile even after 1964.
