numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11880 Posts	Posted 06/15/2022 1:19 pm Thoughts? Thanks! PTOLEMAIC KINGS of EGYPT. Ptolemy VI Philometor. First sole reign, 180-170 BC. AR Tetradrachm (26mm, 13.70 g, 12h). Paphos mint. Dated RY 7 (175/4 BC). Diademed head of Ptolemy I right, aegis around neck / Eagle standing left on thunderbolt; LZ (date) to left, Π to right. Svoronos 1312; Olivier 1958-62 (obv. die D326); SNG Copenhagen 614; DCA 40. Iridescent tone, roughness, worn obverse die, some smoothing and light marks. Good VF. 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."
