I've gotta work on my grading skills, it's time to hand this one over to the internet experts. These are two small cents - one is a 1947 ML (I'd like to get a complete circulated set of these one day, but that dollar really kills on the prices) and the other is a remarkably good-looking 1973 (a birth year for the person who let me hunt through their penny jar). What do you think? If the images are too bad I can probably redo them in daylight.

vf 20 on 1947

Ms 60 on 1973, due to lack of luster

I agree for VF20 on the 1947 and would say AU55 for 1973

The George VI coins are often weakly struck with respect to details in the King's hair. I would say VF-30 for the 1947 ML (blunt 7), based on the reverse wear indicators.

I would agree with the AU-55 grade on the 1973.
