ms64. nicely struck hair
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."

It's nearly impossible to determine surface quality with those pics.

I'm really not good with Peace dollars, but I don't think it's a Details coin. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020
In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024

Better than average strike both obverse and reverse. Center of cheek on obverse and eagles right most wing line indicate light circulation.
Toning occurred after circulation. Disturbed fields confirm circulation. Blotchy toning very typical. No hint of cleaning.
AU-55.

These pics make it difficult to tell surface quality.

Not a fan of the area in front of the mouth. Luster look abraded there. AU-58

62-63. I can't see definite signs of foul play on the coin, so I'll assume there aren't any there for the purpose of making this guess.

unfortunately someone tried to clean this one. MS details. I've seen this before. to the left of the bust someone took something like an eraser and attempted to remove something from the coin removing the luster and leaving that dull area
