Absolutely 58. Perfect example of same. Peace are very tough to learn to grade because they are so open and flat.
If you want a great set look for STRIKE first, grade second. While strike doesn't affect numerical technical grade, searching for strong strikes is truly a challenge.
Most collectors just jump on any strike since it requires a lot of work to learn the difference. Go to Heritage and keep looking to see strong and weak strikes.
The best thing is that so few search for strong strike that you won't pay much difference for superior coins.

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."
