Hi, OK, so maybe three doesn't make a herd, but do you agree that I have these graded in order, best on the left, least good on the right? I note that the left and middle ones have the weaker LIBERTY, but I think this is once again a metal flow issue. Most everything else about the right-most one seems weaker to me, although the muckyness just inside the rim of the one on the left down past FIVE CENTS bothers me.

Are the lines on the bison's rump on the coin on the left PMD or something like roller marks?

Opinions on specific grades for each are welcome. I'm specifically wondering because I know the issues that arose with production on these.

Thanks in advance.

Your grading looks pretty good.

Looks like staining or something related to PMD.

I agree with your grading order. Those are three great coins.
