Looks way undergraded based on just the obverse. Great eye appeal too.
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 love the eye appeal. Nice pickup. Is it for a Type Set, or are you collecting the whole series?

I agree with the Staff edit to have added the year to the title. Had it not been there, I would not have clicked on this post!

Looking good so far - last I checked in 1911 Barber quarters were struck with a reverse side as well, so let's see it!
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

Here is the reverse. Most of my collection is albums, I just wanted to add something else to it. I am getting my favorite coins slabbed and this is one of them.

Sometimes I think these TPG's hire only the Schizophrenic.
Consistency isn't always their strong suit.

Beautiful specimen - I think it is under graded as well but I don't make a living grading so there is that.

Very conservative grade. I can see why that is one of your favorites!

Do you think it's worth trying to resubmit? What grade do you think it may get?

That looks like a higher slider. It's nice to see a Barber in such condition.

Very nice and I believe it might be under graded. Looks better than AU-53 with all that luster.

I would just enjoy it as is. There's not a big price difference as you go up into higher grades. You'd have to get to AU58 to even cover the grading fees I think.
