These are 2 of the 5 coin IHC lot I picked up awhile back. Total price: $144. The 5 were graded XF to AU, no numerical grades, in old flips (not yellowed.)

The 1883 looks okay. It has noticeable Longacre (strike?) doubling on the obverse legend, if that helps. I do not 100% trust the color, but I am not an IHC expert. The areas that look silvery on the picture are really just more brown than the surrounding reddish.

Moving on to the 1890, which I couldn't find any little quirks about:

A picture of all five coins to make the color comparison.

Thoughts/opinions and any known attribution would be greatly appreciated.

83 AU-55 details, cleaned
90 AU-58 details, cleaned
The color and toning do not look natural on these.

Agree with IGE except I'd but the '83 a tad lower at 50/53, though possibly just a weak strike,
