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'm at AU58. Possibly taken a quick chemical dip based on luster, though this could be the lighting

I'll say AU-55. Lacks pop for an uncirculated coin.

I was leaning toward AU58 and maybe a slider into low mint state, nice split tail and a 2 feather which is very nice, was it attributed.

Thanks fellow CCFers for your consideration and continued grade opinions. Quote:

Thanks, again, for your comments on this 1916 2F. If it makes it to NC in one piece it will live next to the beautiful 1917 model that @Ty2020b so generously provided.

AU-58 , the only wear that I can think of is the right obverse rim . It could just be weakly struct on that one side .  As mentioned nice horn and tail ,nice eye appeal .  |

that metal flow on the obv is sick. I'm not fortcollins but my guess is VLDS obv. the rev discoloration is somewhat distracting and your eye is immediately drawn to that since its such a large area. I'm at AU55

Seems to be more difficult to cherry these online in an auction format these days without them getting bid up. Nice find and congrats on the addition!
