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."

Oh my, numismatic student, you always have such beauties. Superb toning and eye appeal! Pics are a bit fuzzy, but I'll venture MS63 with repunched mintmark.

AU-55 maybe cleaned. The field to the right of her arm appears to have parallel scratches. Same on the reverse on both sides of the MM. Hard to tell with the toning. I hope in had you find this is not the case.

Slightest touch of rub, 58 for me. Quite well struck and very original toning.
