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."

a little too much glare and shadowing on the obv. the 92(P) are known for weaker strikes. I think this one a tad better than that. it hard to tell if the luster across the cheek is broken or not, reverse looks 65. obv somewhere between 63 and 64 so i'll net it to 64 without a better obv photo

I'll say MS-63, better pics would help.

Reverse is delicious. I think it nets out to 64.

Hard to tell with the glare. I'll be conservative especially in an old holder, MS-63.

PCGS said 62. I believe this to be at least a 63, just not sure about a crack and resubmit!

i'd still call it 63 but the glare could be obscuring what we are seeing

A 63 today is better than the 62 it got 25 years ago!
I'd be grateful, too!
