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."

Your coins are in spectacular shape! Beats me by far... Thanks, but the coins we're discussing is not a competition. Each of the coins mentioned in this thread by everyone are well over 200 years old, and each has its own beauty and history. A "well worn" coin used in commerce during that time has quite a story to tell! Perhaps one of our "Founding Fathers" even handled it? Steve Edited by Winesteven

Large Cents: 1795,1796,1797. All worn but still very cool. Like to think that my ancestors may have had them at one point in MA or VA.
