I'll say G-4 for the one on the left and G-6 for the one on the right.

Wow - Great score, somebody didn't have their RedBook around when checking these at the coin shop! That's about $80 right there and for bullion value, unbelievable!

I didn't have to mention the '92-S, '93-O, '94, '94-O, or '96-S to get a wow either. I filled a whole bunch of holes in my early-date Barber dime set this weekend for about $15. Pretty happy with that.

I think both could grade G-4. The one on the left is a little bit on the lower end and looks lightly cleaned. The one on the right looks like it may have also had a light cleaning but retains more of its originality probably enough for a problem free grade. Upper end G-4 or call it G-5 if you would like. Spectacular deal! Congrats!

Looks like I am going to be the only one disagreeing on G-6 for the second one.

In order to be G-6, it must have a full rim. This means even the gears on the front of the rim that go all a round. ( don't know what they're called)

The on the left is a G-4. Letters aren't worn down, nor is the rim.

I was grading them 3 and 4 respectively, so to those of you whom agreed with me, thanks!

I'll image and post the other semi-keys I picked up with these tonight.

Nice score for that price ... and all us CCF experts will weigh in with technical evaluations and such ... despite that input ... great coins for a very nice price.

My input ... both coins have been cleaned in the past and grade G4 or lower (details).
