It's one picture, I can't split it up easily. And it's the same lot, so it shouldn't be split.

Certainly the first 1916 hasn't been cleaned, but these images are not large enough for me to make a confident statement on the others.
Rest in Peace

Some have been, maybe all, too bad. The upper left should a been left alone, too bad. 1920 harsh clean, spiderlines on both sides really see it, the others are all circulated and cleaned, dipped and wiped. I suspect 16P has been too, was a high AU, even MS before.

Some are cleaned, some not. For sure the '17, '18, '20, and '23. All of these exhibit hairlines on the surfaces which indicate a cleaning.

No self promotion intended, but you might want to look at the post I made about how to identify cleaned coins: http://goccf.com/t/319679&whichpage=1

Top left 16 is the only one that is mint state and uncleaned.

Really can't give much help, other than EF-AU details, cleaned, on the rest. One nice coin to lure in the gamblers.
