Help with grading is appreciated. Worth getting slabbed?

I'll say MS-63. Very nice coin! I think it's worth sending out to get graded since the value increases markedly at 63 and dramatically at 64.

Nice luster, but a trace of wear. I'd say AU-58.

AU58 or MS63. I'm leaning AU as the chin stands out as looking like it has some wear and the highest points across the profile

I think the obverse was up against the edge of the bag and got a scrape. Pretty common. I don't see how the reverse could look like that if this had ever circulated. Reverse is solid MS-64.
