Not sure if it's possible to reply to a specific post, but to the one above me, once I get some feedback from the community on what I posted, I will post the 5 or so best coins if permissible.

I think you would have to get those up to an MS67 to make them cost effective for you to grade them. I may be wrong. If I am, I'm sure someone will correct me.
I'm thinking these were in someone's collection for a very long time!
Lovely sample of what you have!

Anyone have any opinions on the grade of this one?
There are 9 either very slightly better/worse.

Doc, that is a gorgeous cent! Mid to upper MS for sure. And if this isn't the best 9, WOW! If you are planning on selling some, please consider letting Forum members have a shot at them!

Knockout coin. but you'd have to get MS-67RD to make this pay.

Here are the other 9 coins. Honestly, they are all very nice. I've seen the messages about considering selling to members here. I'm not ready to sell yet, however, I look forward to getting to know this community and if allowed, will make this my first shop stop!

Just wondering if anyone else has any thoughts on how these coins might grade?

Very nice collection you have there but unfortunately its difficult to evaluate a grade estimate from the pics supplied. Trust me, I know very well just how difficult it is to take a proper pic, considering lighting, glare, shadows, distance, what you're using to take the pic, etc., all factor into how a coin might grade.
From what I can see in the pic, I believe coin number 2 (top line, 2nd from the left) could be a contender for mid/higher MS condition. To reiterate, 2 pics of just 1 coin (obverse/reverse) and see if you can improve on the pic quality.

Post the best example with the best possible photos on the grading forum. Within about 24-48 hours there will be plenty of very experienced graders who will give you input.

Post your best 3 in the grading forum.

Never knowing how they might come back from the TPG ... risky. There are collectors out there that DON"T need them graded and you can do very well. Beauty !!!
