I came across a few coins and would like to know how you guys would grade them. Also, I would like to know if you think any of them have been cleaned/altered. I know its often difficult to tell from pictures, so give it a shot if you want. 1936 Capped Bust 1826 Capped Bust
Last one : 1798? Large Cent. It seems to have maybe some corrosion on the front. Would PCGS even grade this if it was sent in, maybe just genuine?
My grades are as follows: !836 half- F16 details (cleaned), 1826 half- F12, quarter is also F12 in my opinion, the Cent is a strong VF30, and the last one is AG3 with corrosion in my book. I personally would not send any of them in for grading, but bringing them in a local coin shop for authentification would not hurt, especially for the halves. I've seen a few "replicas" of that series on the 'bay over the years. I am not a professional grader, but offer my guesses free of charge!
I'm no expert but I would grade these coins as: 1836 50 Cents - VG, 1826 50 Cents - G+, 1927 25 cents - VG+, 1863 Cent - XF, 1798 Cent - Pitted, Fine+ Details.
My stab would be F-12, VG-10, F-12 and XF for the IHC. I can't take a stab at the large cent since the pictures are so dark, but if heavily corroded I would net it out at po-1 or ag-03. Just my opinion.
