65bn. A beauty.
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."

Indeed most attractive, but AU-58 would not surprise.
Rest in Peace

AU - details cleaned or altered color.
I'd like to see a photo in natural light outside of the flip.

i think this is one I need to see when you get it in hand out of its holder in the proper lighting. I'm going to grade this one and see how it compares to it later

UNC details (cleaned) based on the photos I dont think the surfaces are original

Even with the old cleaning. this is a very nice little Indian! High AU or possibly low MS. It's definitely a keeper! Thanks for posting!

It looks to me like it saw very light circulation, but very little. I'm at AU-55.

Not so sure this coin has been cleaned looking at 2nd photos.

AU58, but details if you do think it shows cleaning in hand
