I don't think this one makes the +. MS64.

65
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 think this one could pull a 65.

Wow, what a nice coin! Most of the obverse marks are superficial. There are only three small dings on the reverse. Unless the knock between the cap and the "UM" of UNUM is deeper than it looks, I'm at MS-65 here.

MS64 to scuffy for me to reach MS65, but it's NGC who knows?

breast a little light for the year. luster looks pretty good. the marks on the profile and obv field appear to be from bagging. reverse fields are little spotty. eye appeal looks good.
MS64+ and a 65 is not out of the question except I think they grade these common years known for sharp strikes a little different.

I would guess MS64 on the first obverse and reverse photos. And MS65 on the second ones.

Solid MS64+, easy 65 without that cheek scuff
Edit: NGC may have called it 65

I can see this one going higher than my original MS64 call, MS65 could be easy but all depending on the scuffs, they could be deep or superficial and just showing worse in the lighting.

This got 64, no plus designation surprised me, I think it's pretty choice for a 64.
Overall it seems I was 1/2-1 Point optimistic on most of my coins. I'm glad I was able to be consistent at the very least.

I wanted to say MS64, but apparently we relinquished the 48 hours rule.
