Hi All.. what do you think these would grade at?

The first 1969 has some slight doubling in "IN GOD" - I thought it was a bit of Machine Doubling but the sharp corners of G and D appear to have notching. Thoughts on that would be appreciated, too

1968 with what looks like a denticle hit to the neck:

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

1969 #1:

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

Another angle of "IN GOD":

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

1969 #2 has some light chatter in the left field:

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

68-&-69-Kennedy-Halves

Thank you!

Well, I thank you for posting these.
Let me say I would grade these without holding back....
1968 D MS-63
1969 D #1 MS-63
1969 D #2 Just might make MS-65
Those few ticks in his hair, the ding in the wing and the rub on the shield keep this one from MS-66.

I just think you have Machine Doubling in the close-up but I can see where it looks doubled with a tilt to it too. Not dramatic enough or sharp enough to get too excited IMO.
Thanks again!

Sure thing, Wheezy. Thanks for the grades, and doubling opinion, too.
