I think I see some circulation rub on the nose, so I'll go with AU.
Errers and Varietys.

I'm gonna call the few light spots of rub "book wear" and say MS63.

The 2x2 makes this one hard to gauge. High AU to Low MS.

the 99(O) are known for sharp strikes. i'n not seeing it here but there are exceptions. coin probably was improperly stored. eye appeal is on the low end and would affect value. based on the obverse I'm going with AU55 netting it due to the eye appeal.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I thought it may be MS,
at least the reverse, and also had a unique look, so I picked it up. We will see what it looks like in hand when it comes in.

64
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."

Not seeing any wear, and there aren't many contact marks. There's some abrasion on the cheek. Strike seems OK for a New Orleans Morgan. Toning looks natural if not very attractive.
I'll throw out an MS-63.

second look on this one I'm modifying my grade
Low end MS63 - value will be affected by eye appeal
