the 82(S) were almost always seen with strong strikes this one is right up there with a tad short on the reverse. I'm glad you posted the raw photos rather than just the TV photo which really distorts what we see.
the marks on the cheek are fairly weak. I think she came in at MS64.
Edit to say I think its worth noting I struggle to capture luster in photographs. This coin is much flashier in hand than it appears in these slab photos
your original photos made the coin surfaces look dull and missing full luster. when I grade from TV photos I drop it a grade however your vid helped a lot to see the actual surfaces. maybe vids with the photos in the future if you can. remember we can only assess a coin based on what we see.
two tips on videos
1. show both sides 2. rotate the coin very slow, I know you were attempting to show the cartwheel luster on her but we can still it even if the coin is not rotated that fast.

That is fair to say! I believe most of us struggle with photos.
