I think it could grade MS-62, maybe MS-63. Nice coin!

I'm more in the AU55 camp on this one, it looks like some marks or wipe marks on the cheek area?

Hard one to pick. Luster isn't cartwheel from the looks, but it does look smooth and even from what I can see. The obverse looks nicer than the eagle which is rare to my mind. I'd have said assuming it is an MS coin 64 until I saw the reverse and now I'd say MS63.

This one is, to me, a perfect example of a slider. The details look technically Uncirculated, but I don't believe the marks on the coin are consistent with never seeing circulation. So I'm calling it AU57.  |

Huge difference in values between the AU and an MS here. I'm hoping MS for the collector. If it is an AU it is certainly a lovely one.

The dullest of grey, especially on the obverse (hairline, upper cheek area, cotton ball stems), and the lightest of crossed countertop hairlines on cheek, would tell me that it has seen light circ.
Unlike Ssuper, I'm going AU57.75 :-)
