Yeah, take a stab. I have no idea really... these are out of my league and I need some help. 63+ I would say on these? These are a few of the best I have.

I did not take pictures of the back because I did not want to handle them further... but figured it would be fun to share them anyway!

Thanks!

WOW! Thanks for sharing.

Doubt a picture of the reverse will help....these are NICE!

At least 63 and easily heading into the 64/65+ range.

These are being sent off for grading and attribution, so I'll let you guys know how these come back.

After looping these over, these are my notes:


1899 -- 189 are repunched. Chip on feather, but does not match either in Snow's book. Last 9 not shaped like the first, especially inside loop. NEW!?

1900 -- Top of ETY in LIBERTY. Die dot on jaw SW of ear lobe.

1901 -- Very light repunch on bottom of first 1?

Three stunning Indians.
1899 MS65, maybe higher depending on color and in hand eye appeal
1900 MS64, maybe lower depending on what they think about those small dots of corrosion
1901 MS64
Rest in Peace

Not sure, color looks funny but it could just be the photos.

the 1901 aslo has a repunched 9, possibly snow 7. Nice coins all have sharp uncirculated details.

I tend to agree on the color, it looks like some that I tried my hand at getting a pleasing color in my experimentation days, possibly heated or baked in an oven. Could also be the photo lights though.

It was shot with a single source LED bulb, but the room in which I shot is painted red and lit by warm incandescent bulbs. I think it is the ambient lighting that is having an affect. Won't be using the dining room for photography any more.
