Seems to have some wear on the higher details - AU58

That's what I think - seems to be rub on the eagle's breast.

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."

AU-58 (look at breast feathers and wing tips), and weakly struck (skirt lines), but could be bad photos.

I'm at AU55/AU58. Can you get a sharper obverse image? The lines running up Liberty's skirt at the highest point on the design are what I usually use.

Notice the lines on the skirt that run up Liberty's leg directly above the date? The wear there indicates that this coin is not uncirculated. I'm still not sure how much wear is acceptable for what AU grade, so I want to remain at AU55/AU58, but if forced to pick one, I'll go with the higher grade since that's in line with more opinions here.

I see rub, bro. Up liberty's leg and into her hand. Could be a weak strike but I also see it on the breast feathers on the reverse. AU-55
