I want to say MS...I will take a shot at AU-58. Could go either way.

Nice looking example, no porosity that I can see. AU58, possibly low MS.

Beyond my pay grade. I'll take a stab at MS-63BN. How wonderful this is.

Slight wear on the high points, long since patinated over. AU-55.

I will say 58 . Looks like light wear though a MS-63 would not surprise me.

I'll say AU-55, would be 58 but I see rim damage at 10 o'clock on the obverse.

Very slight wear, small ticks and a couple larger hits, no apparent luster but that's not really a flaw for AU early copper. Strike weakness on OF and the upper right-side wreath. Surfaces look pretty original and eye appeal is very good. AU-58 seems likely. If it got a mint state grade it was a gift IMO.
