I will guess:
62 Looks like hits to the fields on obv
63 Many hits obverse left of Liberty
58 Looks like eagles feathers have luster breaks
Photos are a little dark so these are my best guesses.

#1 - MS63 lots of field ticks, neck looks rough, appears to have nice luster. #2 - MS64 Nicer than the first coin, not as brilliant in the luster #3 - MS62 Dull surfaces, may even go AU No way to tell the TPG company or companies that graded them.

Pics are a bit too dark to do the best grading job; there may be little nicks that I can't see.
The variation in opinions seem to indicate this.
Sometimes I cheat.
I compare with PCGS Photograde. A worthwhile resorce if you are not keen on slabbed coins.
Sometimes if you are photographing the coin IN the slab, nicks and dust marks on the slab itself can upset our grading attempts. Make sure the slab is clean and perfectly UN sctatched UNnicked. Good lighting and the angle of it can be important as well.
Perhaps a thread could be started on the best ways to photograph a coin IN a slab.

Sorry about the pics, I tried too hard. These point and shoot pics taken in daylight might be better. I will reveal each TPG before revealing the grade. Coin #1 (ICG):   Coin #2 (PCGS):   Coin #3 (NGC):   |

Much better pics.,
64
65
65
should result in a narrower range of grading opinions by others than me.
All nicely struck.

All very good guesses. The grades are #1 ICG MS65 #2 PCGS MS64 #3 NGC MS64 My favorite is the 1941-D (#2 PCGS MS64) As westcoin pointed out, it is not as brilliant as the others. It has a nice soft look too it. Easy to see the details at a glance. It almost looks like an ASE  Also because of where it got hit by the edge of another coin. I suppose that by itself dropped it a point. #1 and #3 are not so different overall. Equal luster, but #3 has a slight golden tone. On #3 you can see some brown spots in the pics, but 3 of them are on the slab lol. There is one on Liberty's chest. Also there is a die crack or something running over the bottom of F to the wing under A (in OF AMERICA) #1 may have gotten an extra point for being so darn bright! |

Your second set of photos were much better, I would've gone at least MS64 or higher on each one if we had started with those photos instead.
