Pic is poor - badly out of focus so basically can only be graded on the lustre. 63 is my guess.
Watch your top knot

Yes the pics aren't sharp enough to offer a grade, but it looks very promising, maybe MS65. Great luster and a much better strike than I am accustomed to seeing.

MS64, but a sharper image may yield higher

Excellent luster but potential grade-limiting marks can't be closely examined in these blurry photos. I think I see significant contact marks on the cheek and in the left obverse field. Without better images I can't go higher than MS-63.

I'll guess 62. Seem to be quite a few hits under the blinding luster. Flashy coin nevertheless with great 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."
