I agree with VG on all 4. The 1930 might go fine but it looks like a rim ding above B in LIBERTY on the obverse and a light scratch above the Y

I'm gonna say:
1936: VG10
1937-D: VG10
1925: VG8
1930: VG10

The 1936 has more of a fine obverse and central reverse, but the reverse lettering is almost merging with the rim so I give it a net VG.

as always, for education, doesn't that bring it right to a G level grade? isn't full rim/lettering a qualifier for VG entry?

Depends on who you ask. I don't know that you have to find the single worst part of the coin and base the grade on that. Most of the central details are at least borderline F on that coin, and every part is clearly better than G except for one part of the rim, which is not clear from the picture because of the coloration. The lettering is full, and not merged with the rim, it's just close. That's why I went with a net grade.

It's possible that the wear is uneven because it's bent, in which case it's a details grade.

I agree with Captain, all in the G-6 to VG-8 range.
