#1 - MS 64, superb original toning obverse.
#2 - VF 35
#3 - EF 45, might make 50.
All appear natural, uncleaned and original.
If you can post your photos right side up it helps us see the coin, especially if we are using a tablet which snaps the photo back in the wrong position if attempting to change the orientation.
Really lovely examples. I love the seated and I would certainly take the other two out for a second date.

Btw, you guys are awesome, thank you for the lightning quick replies, it is extremely appreciated, these are some of my picks from the local coin store, (I got lucky with the seated half as I was there when he got it)

You don't have to take the coin out, just remove one shell, take the picture. Put the shell back but not completely. Turn it over and tap it so the coin and ring drops into the other shell then remove the second shell and take the picture. That whay you never have to touch the coin.

Looks to be a scratch on the reverse of the 1820 CBH as well as an unusual coppery area underneath the left wing.
Also an less visible scratch on the reverse of the 1824 CBH.

Is the 1820 a; small date curl base 2?, large date knob 2?, large date no knob?, square base 2?, curl base 2?

I listed the 1820 for $400 on ebay, I'm thinking of listing the other halves, what do you guys think about pricing? Is the 1820 appropriately priced? What do you think for auction starting prices for the other two? |

I question the authenticity of the 1820...just doesn't look right to me.

That second set of pictures came out really well! Good job! Quote:

Your 1877 S half is GORGEOUS. I would say dipped and retoned, but that has no affect on value in today's market. The grade looks MS, but I can't give you a specific number,
The 1824 half is VF-30/35. That scratch may "details" it, though.
The 1820 half is EF-40. That scratch may also "details" it.
Could you post a larger image of the 1884 Morgan? Is that an S I see below the wreath?
