It looks VF but details because of the scratches along the jawline and what appears to be a square impression in the face.
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."

Agreed, I was thinking the rim damage would also give it a details grade.

It might catch VF Details but it's Fine Details for me. The scratches/scrape on the cheek plus what appears to be a significant rim hit @ 7:30 of the Obverse & 10:30 of the Reverse likely keep this one from grading straight. Nice looking coin otherwise though, looks original and I like the toning.

she looks VF35/XF40, the rim hits are not bad to detail the coin as they are not impinging the denticles, however, the hits on the cheek would. they are displacing metal and typically would pull the designation.
