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."

At $640, I would certainly prefer an example without chop marks.

AU55 I think its just short of 58.

$640 seems a little high if it grades at 55. even at AU58 it would be full retail.

I think it makes AU-58. If you were hoping for MS I think this one falls short. Still a nice coin.

My first inclination was AU-55. May be 58. Certainly an attractive Trade dollar.

Not seeing signs of circulation here, but I'm getting "old man eyes" these days

If you can see what I can't, then put me in with the AU+ crowd

This one came in. I think it has beautiful cartwheel luster. Further thoughts? Thanks!

Nice luster, you paid a fair price for the coin with some upside. I am still at AU58 with a luster break/rub on Liberty's hand, shoulder, knee. Getting the coin into a MS holder would not surprise me.

I'm on the 58 bandwagon
Are those obverse hairlines ?
Still a sweet example

Looks like 5 horizontal hairlines under the arm.
