for me one of the hardest coins to grade especially the early dates. that's why we have fortcollins

I don't know. either AU58 or MS63. I'm leaning AU but i'd rather than grade these

Certainly not less than 58, but I can't get a good feel on this one.

Nickels are a pain to grade.
Often can't tell whether it's a weak strike or wear.
The hard metal was a problem for the Mint.

I'm leaning towards MS on this coin around -63 or -64.

MS-65, I think the photo lighting makes this look worse than it is.
