AU-55, MS-62, AU-53. I'm far more harsh on these because ebay sellers tend to call F-15s AU-55s, and I like to balance them out.  |

1st-AU55, has slight wear on leaves, reverse
2nd-MS62
3rd-AU53, has wear on leaves, reverse and shield lines, obverse
I did my grading before I saw HABIB's post. I guess I concur with HABIB!

AU-58 - I have a feeling this looks better in hand than photo
MS-63 RB - Nice & clean
XF-45 - I'm conservative on this one. Obverse seems to have rub on all the high points (bottom of leaves & arrows). Interestingly I like this coin the best because of the die crack on the reverse.

Just guessing, I have no experience grading these.
1st one- AU54 It looks like a small rim dent or something on the top?
2nd one- MS63 this could be the highest although there is some weakness in the "IN"
3rd one- MS61 just doesn't look as good as the other one.

I guess I'm showing my lack of patience here, but when are we going to see the actual grades?

I really like this series of coins. I have one my self, although not nearly in as good of condition as the ones shown here. Since I am fairly new to collecting/ grading this is purely a guess. I'm gonna say First coin is MS 60, the second is MS 63, and the third is AU 54.

Well, I don't feel too bad about coins 2 & 3. I was close enough to clain it was the pictures that threw me off. However, I really missed the boat on the first coin. Live & learn.

The problem with high relief coins is it takes very little wear in a small area to drop the coin from MS to AU

I didn't understand the spread of 9 but otherwise I was pretty close except for the 3rd one.

Well, learning that 63-53=9 has completely changed my world view. Other than that, nice ones.

Ditto on 63-53=9. I need to go back to grammar school. At least I was pretty close and pegged the two coins that were AU. Nice coins!
