WOW!! Beautiful coin!!

I would go MS-62 on the basis of VERY minimal wear (at least that I can see in the pictures.)

NICE!!
Rest in Peace

That is a nice coin. The surfaces look really clean, but they also look odd. Maybe it's just the lighting. I'm not getting a read on the luster, but I would say AU-58 due to a touch of wear on liberty's right knee. Looks like a coin to be proud of.

Hey! What's a "Bustie" doing with my Seated coins!?

Very nice one. I am having a hard time determining between AU and BU with the small photos. So I always err on the conservative side ... AU55.

I have several 'O' mint halves and they all have the same uneven strike as yours. Note how strong and crisp 5th, 6th, and 7th left stars appear and how weak the 1, 2, and 3rd right stars appear. I swear those Nawleens guys were a bit off-kilter.

It is hard to determine luster present on this one...So I would give it AU-58 with very nice details
