Either AU-58, with great eye appeal, or MS-63, with a soft strike and great toning. I can't tell from the photo whether the patina is disrupted on the high points. Nice one!

Nice looking coin. I would say AU-55 or AU-58 based on other coins in those grades I looked at.

Better lighting in the photos would have helped. Based on these, I don't see any breaks in the luster or friction on the high points and think what appears to be wear is actually strike weakness.
MS-62

I'm going to say this one probably looks different in hand than these photos. most of the flatness on the high points look likes its from strike. tough call on grade AU58 or MS62

Tough call on strike vs. wear. This date is usually well struck, but I think this has a somewhat mushy strike. Nevertheless, my gut says AU-55. It has nice eye appeal, but I would personally seek out a well struck example as they are plentiful.

Thank you all for the feedback! This Coin is on it's way to me now. I will take some photo's of it when I get it in-hand(hopefully with better lighting as suggested) and post them. Thanks again!

Looking forward to your new photos. It will be interesting to see what was hidden by the seller's photos.

After seeing the new photos I can see breaks in the luster where the light wear is at. I revise to AU-58 on this one. Still a super nice coin.

I agree, slider. It's a nice one, though. Not baggy, and solid eye appeal.
