I agree with echizento, although I would give the capped bust half a VF-35 details. Unfortunately it has been polished to death, and is probably only worth F-12 money at most.
The Peace dollar looks like it has some PVC contamination. Hopefully it's not verdigris, as acetone will not remove it if it is. I agree with EF-40 and the need for an acetone dip.
The seated half I would grade EF-40. I can't tell if it has been cleaned, but it most likely has been overdipped and retoned. The white center is an indicator of that.
Nice coins though, and would make a good start to an EF type set.
