Need help with IHP. I needed another coin in the image to get the color right on the IHP. Any help on the variation would be much appreciated. Thanks for your consideration...

VAM refers to Morgan and Peace dollar attributions only.
Your IHC looks very nice however, I believe it falls into the upper AU grade range. It appears to have slight wear on the high points but the four diamonds are full and bold.
There are 31 MS Snow attributions for this date.

I noticed what looks like wear too on the hair curl and cheek. Although it may just be toning. If toning, MS63, if wear, AU58. The color is very hard to judge, it looks full red, but also looks like it could have been dipped. Can't tell for sure.

Hard to tell in the pic but I am leaning toward ever so lightly worn I agree with AU58. I want to say it has been dipped but cant really be sure from the image.

Not the best judge of copper but some thing about the luster and the color doesn't look right to me. Could the dark patches by the rim like by United be a sign of recoloring? The details seem to be high AU but I have not seen any problem free circulated Indian cents with much more than traces of "red" let alone nearly full "red". The Half Cent is nice.

The discoloration at 2 and 8 o'clock appear to me to be finger print handling marks. I got this one and 9 others high grade indians from a nearly full set. I'll be putting several others up in the next few days.

Not sure this coin hasn't been reworked. Color seems too fresh except for the two darker areas at 2 and 8 O'Clock positions. Hard to say for sure from these photos.

Can I get some feedback on the 1/2 cent grade. It's going into my type set till a better one comes along.

I'd put the Half Cent at XF45.
