I was wanting to see what others thought of grade here and possibly get an overton number for this. I soaked an old piece of tape off of it only to find the scratch so I know it's not a straight grade. All opinions welcome.

vf details scratched
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."

Split grade. The obverse is showing VF sharpness, cleaned and graffiti. The reverse is showing F sharpness, cleaned and scratches. Take your pick of either VF details damaged and cleaned or F + details damaged and cleaned.

I'll say F-details (cleaned, scratched). The reverse really holds this coin back.
