I'll go with MS-65 on both. I think the first one has better eye appeal.

Coin 1 looks better. Is the dot between the bottom of the wheat ears on #1 raised metal or a photographic apparition?

The second coin is better struck on the obverse, I think that is one of the cleanest shoulders I have seen on the second one. I also was showing the comparison, if someone could point out where om the obverse are there qualities demonstrating a strong, full strike. I know the hair behind the ear and the drape of the coat on the shoulders, are two? Anything else

The first coin has much nicer fields and less spots.

65/66RD depending on luster/eye appeal

I am also in awe of the photo skills. I would say MS66 and then MS65 on second one and yes less eye appeal due to spots.

Thanks for the acknowledgments on the photos, there is still a lot to improve upon. Learned all this from the members I met here and on the photo forum--should out to Ray P. for his systems, well worth the investment.

Coin 1: MS 65-66 RD

Beautiful coin

Coin 2: MS 64-65 RD

Also, a beautiful coin but the first has better eye people due to the spotting.

Also, I'd love to know how your pictures are so good.
