Started making a post about picture quality and ebay, but it turns out my monitor is going bad... lol.

This one is more visible than some, but it is pretty hard to give accurate grades on some of these coins you are posting on here.

I will refrain on this one, good luck!

I'm certainly no expert on 3 cent coins, but the date on this one looks off.

Lets see what the experts think.

I can see how you would think that, that's just how the date's looked that year (funny looking "1").

and possibly VF35. I like the coin except for what appears to be a lighter/rubbed area around the date. Possibly lighting?

VF-Details. Looks like some damage on the obverse at 9:00 & 11:00.
