Hello what grade do you think could it take and is it worth it to grade it?     Edited by chronos

Probably a slider AU-58 with lots of luster according to what I see, and that is a D2 reverse according to vamworld.com. Of note, I am not entirely convinced that the mark on the eagles chest is PMD, looks like that could be a strike-thru issue. Also it in my mind is not worthy of getting graded unless you want to get it graded.  |

 Wondering if it has been cleaned. Not much luster. |

MS63 shot 64 and not worth grading. It's a $70 USD coin at most. Still a keeper though.

typical weak strike we see on these. what appears to be wear looks like its from the strike. photos may be dulling the surfaces. removing the coin from the holder may help. when posting, if possible, always remove them first. for a better assessment repost out of the holder. if the luster and original surfaces are still there then it could be as high as MS63 maybe 64. if it gone then UNC details. I'm with mrwhatisit on the breast. I'm not convinced its PMD either so I'm ignoring it. |

I think the luster is there, just defused lighting in the photos. Nice clean cheek, MS-64.

Slight update, I didn't realize that could be weak strike, if that, then either MS-63/64ish and then it could be a contender for grading...

Obverse pic is too soft and dark to see surface details clearly - no grade for me.

even at MS64 this coin is not worth the cost to slab it

MS65
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."

looking at the new photos the cheek has a tad too much chatter for a 64. revising to MS63
photos can be deceiving. lighting and angles can hide a lot
