Please grade. Cleaned? Toned?

The 1893 looks AU details, artificially toned / cleaned. Copper just don't tone this way naturally.

The 1900 reverse pic doesn't load.

I think both looked recolored with supgog AU details. Both coins load fine for me.

Anyone have an idea what these 'should' be worth? Especially if they are cleaned or toned?

Hi Jon, They are only worth what someone is willing to pay.

If you put them on ebay for sale they may go for quite a bit, especially, the 1900.

I will AU details on 1893 and MS63 for 1900. 1900 looks like it could be original.
Rest in Peace

tough crowd on the grading forum today...lol. I'm not sure about the recoloring....I have seen much more dramatically colored Indians in slabs. They both look quite lustrous and on the top end of AU, the 1900 might sneak into the MS range.

I've seen some oddly toned Indians in problem-free slabs. I don't think there's you have to worry about.
