Please grade the following fifty cent coins? I thought it would be best if I lumped them all together in this one topic, so as not to monopolize this forum! I appreciate your grading skills! Very much.

1973 Coin:

Remaining-Years-For-50-Cent-Coins-One-Thread
Remaining-Years-For-50-Cent-Coins-One-Thread

1974 Coin:

Remaining-Years-For-50-Cent-Coins-One-Thread
Remaining-Years-For-50-Cent-Coins-One-Thread

1975 Coin:

Remaining-Years-For-50-Cent-Coins-One-Thread
Remaining-Years-For-50-Cent-Coins-One-Thread

I have a bunch more, all in the same state, pretty much. I don't know if I have to post them all for grading?

When the coins are first minted they go into a bag or bin,then distributed to banks and ect...causing the coins to bang into each other leaving "bag" marks on the coins

DBM took the words right out of my mouth, but I think the last is a 45, due to the hair and rev crown wear. What some people call "baggy" can also mean that it was lightly circulated, with no apparent wear, yet a few dings from hitting a bar-top or in a cash register till, etc.

Thank you, kindly. There is that dreaded BAGGY word again. I actually think it has more to do with my poor quality photos as they do not have the dings in them at 10x magnification. However, most of the coins I have been posting have come back "baggy". Let me revisit my coin photography. :)

WOW! Fabulous photo of a beautiful coin! Funny thing is, this is how my coins LOOK! How did you get such gorgeous photos, without any reflections?
