I may decide to bid on this. It has some obverse striations that look pretty benign to me.   |

VG/F sharpness, but those laminations (?) detract. Not a fan.

In hand look would help. For me I would not bid/buy unless it is a super bargain.

F-12 with laminations. Hurts the eye appeal.

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."

Calling this one F15.
When it comes to problems with a coin, I don't consider planchet flaws such as those exhibited on this coin to be as problematic as scratches and harsh cleanings. I see a lot of value here as a space-filler at just US$8, and wouldn't be in a rush to upgrade this if it were in my collection.
