Wow. That's a tough one. They're all attractive. I can't really comment on grade, but I think #1 looks the best. When it comes to the two colorful toners, I personally prefer #3 over #2.

1. AU-58, probably got a MS grade from the TPG.
2. AU-55
3. AU-55

Each coin has its own "issues." Coin 1 has distracting hairlines on the obverse. Coin 2 has an excessive amount of tiny marks on the center of the obverse. And Coin 3 has several long scratches throughout the surfaces.

I like Coin 1 best, even with the hairlines. It has great luster and appears well-struck.

#1 has the best strike and luster but it is UNC details. TPG may call this an UNC but on top of the hairlines there are a few deeper scratches. The most prominent of these goes across the right wing of the eagle and looks pretty deep. Definitely not a hairline.

I agree the two toners are about 55s. Both have pretty reverse toning but I prefer the obverse of #3 which I think is stronger with less distracting chatter.

Unc details, AU-55 and AU-55. As beautiful as the first one is, I could never see past the hairlines. I'll vote for #3.
Rest in Peace

Ditto. If I had to buy one, it would be 3.

If I was buying it for my type set, I'd wait.

AU 58 for the first one from the marks, I doubt PCGS went Uncirc if that was graded anytime recently.

The 1835 they probably called cleaned with that color. They've done that to me before. AU details is my guess.

The 1834 could go either way either AU 55 or cleaned again. If they did details that that's one I might try again if it were mine based on the pics.
