This is another one from the collection I'm evaluating. I'm reasonably certain this is a VAM 3. The CC is tilted to the left & it has the 2 die scratches by the eye. I'm not the best photographer & the GSA plastic didn't help. Hopefully the pictures are good enough for grading.   |

MS64. I see some (3?) diagonal hits in the eagle's chest. Very small chatter in the cheek, but it is the reverse marks that keeps it outside gem for me. Nice reverse fields.
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."

I'd say MS-64. The apparent roller marks on the reverse are a bit distracting.

I think the marks are light enough for this to make MS64.

reverse strike is a little weak for the year but acceptable. MS63+ maybe 64

Can't get past the cheek and chin no matter how light. 63 for me, probably 64 TPG. |
