I could have saved you the trouble of having them graded or even taking photos of them. Just wrap them all up and send to me. Those are all really nice.

I sent the 1864 2 cent piece and the 1859 Indian Head cent pieces to PCGS for grading today. I am sure I will get them back around early July. I will keep everyone updated with pictures regarding the grades. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Love the coins, I do believe all the copper Half Cent, 2 cent and IHC appear to have been recolored or doctored by the looks of it IMO. Still super nice coins!

I would say the half dollar was cleaned and re-toned many years ago. The Two Cent Piece I believe is untouched, as is the Half Cent.

I IHC I am unsure. It appears genuine with some luster left, or maybe some light polishing at some point.

I hope the IHC and Two Cent Piece are genuine, as I sent these to PCGS. I know they will only slab them as authentic is they are toned, polished, or cleaned. I hope not, crossing my fingers.
