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."

AU55/58. Definitely some light circulation wear on the hair and possibly also the cheek. Reverse seems to be in better condition though.

I will reveal what PCGS gave it (before I cracked it out of the slab) tomorrow.

The slightly light strike gives the impression of circulation rub, but it's not. Checking the field luster shows no disturbance that would typically be seen from circulation.

64.

Your second set of images are certainly more flattering than the first. The first set has the cheek looking awfully dull and lifeless. I think it's more likely MS based on the new images - MS63.

Considering '82-S is usually one of the sharpest struck of the series, I'm going to have to say AU on this one.

PCGS gave it MS-63. In hand, you can tell that it's just weak strike and not circulation wear.
