Ok, I'm sure many of you remember the couple pics I posted a couple weeks ago of some purchases I made that weekend at a local auction, well here are the rest of them. Feel free to comment/grade/ask questions. Let me know what you think, you won't hurt my feelings, but you just might help educate me.

This SLQ is also up in the grading forum.

(no, thats not a scratch, its a cat hair from Scooter, my assistant photographer.)

And here is my first (and only) CC Morgan dollar...

A cleaned XF? 1851 Coronet Large Cent.

And last but certainly not least an 1864 2 Cent piece, with very little wear, but a fair amount of black gunk.

For me the first two are just to worn. I really like the next two and the last one is my favorite. I kind of like that darkness to the 2 Cent piece. Now since you asked it is difficult to really say to much unless you also include the prices. For instance if you paid a dollar for each coin, then it makes no difference what anyone says. If you paid a hundred dollars each, then that is something else. And if more, don't say. To bad that 2 Cent piece isn't the small motto version.
Again, our suggestions and advise would be better if the prices you paid were also noted. You might hear a WOW or a lot of laughter.

I think that I paid around fair value for them, I will have to look when I get home tonight to see exactly what I paid.

OK so those coins may look a lot better if you hired a professional cat photographer. You know the ones that don't shed on your coins.
My opinion is I wouldn't have purchased the SLQ at all. For me just to worn out for any price.
The Dollar is a maybe for that price for me.
The large Cent I think is worth the price.
I still like the 2 center the best.
Rest in Peace

I would sell them for:
30
95
25
25

Now I may be counting off for bad pix or eye appeal. I suspect you're using flash, and that's responsible for the color. Still, the colors of all of them, splotches, etc, look like they were cleaned years ago and have started to re"tone".
