Can you tell? The detail looks very good, I think.

I see nothing that would indicate harsh cleaning, very light cleaning if any.

Very curious. Good detail also, in my limited opinion.

They look pretty good to me. Luster still seems very present by the photos. Luster isn't usually present if cleaning has been done.

They're all uncirculated for sure, some of them pushing upwards of MS64. According to an online value chart, each are ranging in value of $45 to $100. (Although I'd keep 'em instead of selling)

Great coins. Care to share the story of where/how you got them?
Rest in Peace

Walkers in the 40's are so common in uncirculated condition that cleaning just can't compare to the real deal. Yours look good!

If that's what they look like in hand, you're good. Plus, PP protection if you need to return them

Does wiping a coin off with a dry cotton rag count as value diminishing cleaning.

If so then you'd just auction your coin as you found it exactly no rubs with anything even if gentle and dry.

I would not recommend wiping coins with any dry cloth . If you want, give them an Acetone soak ,this will not hurt the coins ,but will remove any contaminants on the coins .

None of the coins in the photos look cleaned. They appear to be AU/Unc.
