Your "Flowing Hair and "Draped Bust" coins are very fine and amazing. What was rating condition of your 1795 Flowing Hair coin? 1796 Draped Bust coin is great. What was rating and how much did you pay for it?

The 1795 half was $650, and the 1796 dollar was $1295 (decades ago). Both are supposed to be VF, but I'd guess they'd get a details (cleaned?) grade today.

I do not have many U.S. coins, but my oldest ones are:

One cent: 1857.
Two Cents: 1864.
Five cents: 1902.
Dime: 1889.
Half dollar: 1971.
Dollar: 1971.
As for the quarter dollar, I found one in my change dated 1988 a couple days ago, so I guess that.
