hi everyone! this is my first post on here so I am starting with this 1858. I bought a collection a few months back on ebay with a buy it now for $300 or best offer so I offered $250 and the seller accepted and shipped international for free! well anyway I dont think he knew much about Canadian pennies as almost all the coins (1858 - 1920 Canadian large cents) are high grade including 1859 w9/8 1859 dp#2 91 sl sd 07H etc ,i will post more pics of the rare ones later in this thread any help grading these would be helpful and do you think its worth while sending these for grading? thanks for your help

Nice coins! The 1858 look like EF48 The wide 9 VF30 maybe EF40 Same for the other 1859 The 1884 VF20
Just my opinion!

Nice to see large cents that still have some luster in them like your 1858 at the ~9:00 position. Good job..!!

That 1884 was well worth the price of the whole set. Nice Obverse #1 coins above F-12 are hard to find!!
Can you post both sides of the 1881H?

thank you, I was thinking more like au's for the 1858-9's but I guess the owner of the coins tends to over grade his own stuff!
