Not cleaned IMHO. 52 looks like it could have been dug at some point, but I dont know. Photos to small to accuratly grade.

Photos really are too small for accurate grading.
That being said, the 42-S looks about VG-10, maybe F-12. It also looks like it's been dipped by an amateur - the line running from the T across "IN" and "WE" down to the 9 looks as though this is how far the coin was dunked in the cleaning fluid while holding it at about the 4:30 position.

the reason I think the 42 is a VG and not F is that the sandal on the front foot is not very detailed. And the cleaned is because there are lines(maybe they are just scratches) around the L and I in Liberty on the obverse as well as the cleaned vs dirty line around the motto. The 52 has these same lines or scratches running the whole face.

Thanks for your opinions guys: I based on my skills graded both pieces at F.

VG 8 for the Walker, F12 Dets for the half. Just sell the half as junk silver.

Actually, maybe F15 dets for the half. Not worth more than silver value unfortunately. :l

Both look details/cleaned to me. I think I see hairlines on both. Maybe they were in a folder with tape on them or something. Almost looks like an old tape line on the 42s obverse.
