I thought this one looked very nice for the grade. More so the color. What do you grade?   |

MS65BN. Is that an offset clash in the reverse?
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 guess my questioned is already answered in the title of the thread?

Very nice!
Serious question. How did they manage to get a clash that far off center? There are a couple clashes in the Buff series that are slightly off center (3-4%), but I can't recall seeing any clash this far off before.

that clash is crazy. the lighting is a little much and may be altering our view of the actual color but I think she can pull a 65RB grade. no less than 64RB

It is graded MS65BN. Lots of Red for a brown graded coin. Could have gone RB on another day. Thanks for the replies!

MS-65BN seems about right. I would've placed my bets at RB. Super cool coin!!
