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."

poor photo quality. can't tell if the surfaces are original or not. I think i'll hold until you get the coin (Assuming you havent received it yet). something is not right for that price. if all the luster is there it could be as high as MS65

I'm looking forward to your photos before comment. This one could surprise us and end up being a gem!
I'll bet it's fun to open up the package on a coin like this with anticipation...

That's a very nice Morgan. I'm sure the photos can't capture just how nice. I agree with the 63 consensus and it may squeeze out a 64 on a good day.
I really enjoy taking this Morgan journey with you. Thanks! I'd love to hear details about your photo set up so I can steal your ideas...
