Third coin that shows red with some good details. Worth the 2 cents or more? Always looking for opinions.   |

Here are some bigger pics, or at least I hope they are. The surface details are much better in the ribbon on the coin rather than in the pics.   Edited by retiredairforce2009

Not my series...but looks to be a Plain 5 variety. Nice central strike. Maybe some planchet flaws near STATES and some cool die cracks.
At least AU if not MS...can't really tell the color for sure?
Looking fwd to what others have to say.
Thanks for sharing!

tough call when the coins in the holder. it does look high AU or MS. something is going on in the TES area. unable to determine if surfaces are original. remove coin from holder for better assessment.

Pics outside the holder would be best.

Unc details, cleaned, this one also has reverse damage
Looks almost like it was plated.
Something going on with the obverse too at IG

Better than the 1864 you posted, but the surfaces are highly suspect.

Photos out of flips. Again, sorry for the delay, see 1864 post for excuses. :)   |

AU details, false color. Likely acid dipped.

Au details
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."
