, but judging from the rims and dark "chatter"for lack of better, is from circulation, blurry hides the hits and wear. Not MS level. AU58 at best.

If I had to answer at gunpoint, 62. But it's impossible to get very close with those photos I'm afraid.

What would be the best way to take pictures of coins I have so y'all could comfortably grade them?

You're not too far off, your light and white balance are good. Just need to improve your focus and then crop the pictures.

I'm no pro but you don't need to be to take good coin pictures for web use. I use an old Canon SD700IS ($75), it's only 6MP, and a $30 desk lamp from Lowes. Then I crop with Paint Shop Pro ($10 or less) and resize to about 800x800.

It's good enough for web use:
