Ron, do you have these in your posession? If so, can you get some closer shots? From a distance they all look like decent MS examples, but they all seem to have quite a bit of chatter, namely on her cheek and neck in every one. Since these are so far away, I have a feeling that a macro shot will show some very detrimental marks.......

I would prefer larger pics also. Upload the obverse and reverse as separate pics for each coin so that the file size will stay within the limits.

Hello Ron,
The pictures could be better, but that won't stop me from offering an opinion or three!
The 1886 appears to have decent luster and might be MS, although I see some flat spots in Liberty's hair and a trace of color change on her cheek that could be light wear. I'd guess it could grade from AU-58 to MS-63; my pick is MS62.
The 1888 has reduced luster and signs of rub on Liberty's hair and cheek. I see what might be some swirly hairlines on the reverse from cleaning. It also looks like there might be slight damage at the last 8 in the date and on E-D of United. This is a less appealing coin and I'd grade it AU-50 to maybe AU-55.
The 1889 looks the best to me. It's limited by facial marks but I'd guess it's MS-63.

The 1886 is either AU58 or MS60, it depends on if there is damage on the upper cheek. I would like to view this area better.

The 1888 is weekly struck, but may not grade higher than AU58. However, the coin looks cleaned and a better picture is needed for complete analys.

The 1889 should grade MS63. Again, better pictures would be needed for true grading.
