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."

Looks like a fantastic slider to me. AU-58, with just a light touch of wear on the high points.

Could be lower MS grade as well, can't really tell from the static photo. Love to see this little coin in hand and rotate it under a halogen lamp to be sure.

similar look to 1827 half you posted. I'm betting they are from the same seller and maybe using the photos to hide the surfaces. I think this one is more marked up than the photos are showing. I'm going with AU55 until you post in-hand photos
