EF-45, nice overall but I don't like the fine scratches in the right obverse field.

53. Scratches bum me out too.
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."

Almost forgot about the reveal. As for the suspected clash, I say no. Hadn't seen that, and it appears to be additional light scratches that just happen to look like something they aren't. I love the doubling of this coin, and I really like the alloy mix.  |

The slab picture shows mint luster, so my grade would be AU-50. I don't see this as an AU-55. There is too much wear IMO.
