pristine2 Pillar of the Community United States 1048 Posts	Posted 08/21/2023 9:33 pm That flat spot at Pluribus is a well-known strike issue. It could flip either way between XF45 and AU 50, I think. The feather and hair detail are definitely AU, but the denticles aren't quite that sharp. Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11888 Posts	Posted 08/21/2023 9:51 pm I like the strike and the coin. See some minor pitting issues below liberty's eye, the bust and the area to the right of liberty's clasp. Stars 6 and 7 and the area surrounding the top of the cap appear to have slight surface issues. Reverse looks great. Still a very attractive coin. 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."
