Better pics would help, but about MS-63.

The photos are too blurry. There might be a trace of wear, and it looks pretty flat. I'd go AU-58, but better pics might show MS.

The obverse pic is just too blurry to tell. I think I see some minor rubbing on the reverse, so I have to go with AU-58 at this point.

I see what appears to be some wear on the back of the cap and maybe the top hairline, so I'd say AU58. Pictures seem to be taken in a shadow so it's hard to say but there's no luster to speak of. Still, at this level, may not matter. I'd say $30-40 since it's a popular date (at least with me).

This one was more baggy than I expected. It still has booming original luster, and for $33 bucks it was an ok price I guess. I think it is pretty original and I like it for what it is. Thoughts on grade and problems? Thanks!

Much more luster than seller pics suggested, MS-62.
