I went with members of our coin club to a show in Sacramento CA a few months ago. This coin caught my eye and I ended up bringing it home. How do you think it grades?   |

Looks gem 65 to me  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."

You have a great eye! MS63 I think. 3 small dings I see on the reverse.

MS-64.

Dear lord that's a beauty! I'll say MS-66 just because I don't think I've seen a photo of one that nice.

MS-65. I think the reverse keeps it from 66. Beauty!
