Seems borderline to me VF/EF. What about the scratch on the reverse from the rim through the "t" in states, that's to me the worse of the two scratches? How big does a scratch have to be to details a coin?

That is a gift horse for a grade. Coin has some light wear not related to strike weakness. XF-40 is my opinion.

I figured XF40, XF45 on Friday afternoon. I'm really kind of baffled.

happy that it lined up for you 
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."
