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."

MS-64 but might be a 65 in hand. Photos are not clear enough but worth the gamble.

I agree with MS64 if the contact marks are not too extreme.

For some reason the luster seems muted.

shermae it is because of the photo lighting. Not only do we have to grade the coin but also judge the photos.

Does not look like the same coin as in the original photos. Looks like some circulation on this one with dirt in some of the devices. AU-58.
