If genuine (not sure), I'd say close to VF-20.

Looks genuine but between the rim nicks and the old cleaning on the obverse - I think it's a details coin.

Yeah. I'd say F-15, maybe VF-20 details.

VF details, has the chalky appearance of a badly overdipped coin

It looks genuine. The date position and S mint mark match the 1899-S VAM-15 Slanted Date, S Tilted Right. VF 20/25 The many rim dings could detail the coin.

I'm leaning genuine, but I can't find an exact match to a known VAM. The date isn't really slanted like in VAM-15, and the S is more tilted. Looks closer to a VAM-14, but the date isn't quite right for that either. If it's fake, it's pretty good.

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."

I don't like the color as it has the tone of so many countfeits floating around. In this condition this date is worth $50 or so and I wouldn't pay $50 for it.
