Hello. I was wondering if I could get a second opinion on these two. Any help is very much appreciated! ^_^

I was thinking the first one might be AU, but I am struggling to label the second one.

Agree, mid-AU would be a quick guess on the first one, and EF on the second, possibly a details coin if that's not just tarnish (ED).



to the CCF!

I think it is tarnish. It was in one of those acidic paper 1960's Whitman folders, and I assume it wasn't stored in the best conditions. I bought it for around a buck at a coin shop, and some of the other coins had a similar tarnish. Don't remember much, because it was like a year ago or something.

AU-58 on the first one, and 55 on the second.

AU58 on number 1

AU53 maybe 55 on number 2. I think eye appeal and lack of luster would push it to 53 imo
