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."

Enough marks to hold it to MS-64.

I'm betting this coin looks worse in hand.
AU58 or MS62. for $38 probably can't go wrong

Looks like a details grade to me but for $38, id say you got it at a fair price.

I agree with @paralyse. But, you stole it!  "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae

Hopefully it is just the lighting making this one looked cleaned. Agree with MS- Details Cleaned based on these photos

I'm betting this coin looks worse in hand. I'm going to take the other side on this one. I think with an acetone bath, this one will surprise folks. I think the picture holds this one back and is not accurate. MS-64 and a great buy. Interested to see how this one turns out. |

I'll say MS-63 for this one. Not a huge fan of the obverse toning.

Doesn't look cleaned or overdipped to me. I'd say MS-64, but that divot on the cheek might look worse in hand.
