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."

$4? Why not, coffee can easily cost more.
Alternately, why bother? You may get more enjoyment from the coffee.

Looks like it had a hard life but at 223 years old that's understandable. Still has decent detail remaining. I'd call AG3 details.

Wonder if it was in something at one point noting the 12 and 3 oclock discolored areas. Don't see how you can get hurt at that price.

Very close to G-4. Only the reverse weakness holds it back.
