Picked these up in a bulk lot of silver bought at about spot at the time, can you give me an idea of grades. The 1891 has probably been cleaned, the 1887 may have but it would have been a very old cleaning as its not shiny and the tell tale scuff marks are limited.

1887

Just not sure on the 1887, in hand it looks to be toned naturally. Been with a previous owner a good 40+ yrs I believe.

No, I am not certain.

The color could be caused by bad photography, making it looked cleaned when it actually isn't...
