Was wondering the grade on these coins, it will give me an idea if I'm headed in the right direction with grading.

Is the crown and the hair adjacent to the right of the crown the most important obverse places to look for grading for these?

That's what I look at mostly for these. Quick glance at the reverse to make sure all is good. Then I analyze the obverse, points such as:

- crown and jewels (the square jewels with the x cross inside).
- Hair behind the eyes, between the crown and cheek, all the way up to over the crown and back of the head.

Since the last two are pretty worn, and the eyebrows are gone, the above two points I look at. When it gets closer to high AU and figuring out if it is MS, I have some trouble.

Too many coins to grade and pictures not the clearest.
Do one coin at a time, a lot better for the members to be able to look at.
