I can't image the color is accurate.
I see F12/F15 as the grade.

F details. cleaned. whomever is selling this may have used the lighting to hide the fact. this is not one i'd consider unless you are ok with the prices as a cleaned coin

the blotchiness of the surfaces along with the haloing led me to my conclusion. if you go forward with it would be nice to see it in-hand

VF25
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."

F-15 straight grade. Photo lighting makes it look cleaned.

Maybe, but I'd sure ask for better pics.
