The last two are well worn common dates and not worth grading. We'll need better pics of the 1863, these have too much flashback.

The 1863 may be worth grading but will likely come back as AU details / questionable color.

The other two are common date coins not worth grading, like Coinfrog said, and the 2nd one has pretty severe revere damage.

Those 2 Indian cents definitely have a premium over face - your 1906 is in pretty good condition - and even your 1907 in that condition is probably a couple dollars.

Around $1-$2 for the 1906. The 1907 is too badly damaged to have much numismatic value.

Agree, less than $5 together for the later dates.

We need better pics for the 1863, which has potential.

Not seeing any severe reverse damage - just 117 years of wear.

AU for the 1863, VF for the 1906, and maybe VG for the 1907.

we do need better photos of the 63. overhead light is causing too much glare which is obscuring the surfaces and altering the color. the photos other than that are fine. retake them watching to avoid glare. typically diffused lighting is best.

two reasons to slab
1. its a rare coin that needs authenticated and preserved
2. you are planning on selling the coin and the cost of acquisition plus the grading fee's would warrant it without chewing up all your profit

keep in mind costs of grading .

for instance:

PCGS charges a minimum of $69 for a subscription other subscription levels include grading vouchers though so you could reduce these costs. add to the subscription cost, per coin grading cost which I think for this one might be $23, shipping & ins both ways (1-4 coins is $27 if the total value is under $1000)
i don't slab coins for these reasons especially the cost involved. I don't know why this is so popular today. just making the grading companies wealthy

most folks say don't slab a coin worth less than $150. with grading costs upwards of $120 I don't think this is valid today but thats just me.

you can have it graded for less using NGC or ANACS

NGC - 4% of that would be $52, plus $40 for grading, plus $10 for their submission fee, plus $25 for Membership, plus $28 for return shipping.

ANACS grading would be $16 but there's a 5 coin minimum. Shipping would be $29-35.

hope that helps. we will be glad to reassess your coin with better photos

VF-25 on the 1906, VG-8 on the 1907. Waiting for better photos on the 1863.

Ok I hope these are a little better it's are finding better lighting in my house I use those daylight in every part of my house and it almost looks like it could possibly have a Cud die error on edge as well.

much better photos of the 63

the rim appears to be a lamination issue. the coin looks cleaned but photos can be deceptive. the surfaces look dull and for a coin at this level the original skin should not be flat like this. there are disturbances in all the fields along with a few scratches on the obv. the field under STATES is a cleaning indicator. not sure what occurred at K9-K11 reverse rim area

i'll call in UNC details (cleaned)

i would not consider this coin for slabbing

Agree with this analysis, unc details (cleaned or badly mishandled).
