I was wondering what grades you would give these coins. Thank you! The surface image reflectivity may be off due to my scanner. The 1910-s looks like it was just minted, as well as most of the 1931-S. The 1911 is definitely a brown. (High resolution album) http://imgur.com/a/L43dH
That 10-S is a sharpie. Even with those scratches on the reverse it looks as though it could easily go MS65RD. I think I like the 31-D in that grade, too. Disclaimer: I'm outside in the shade with my laptop enjoying a burger and free wi-fi so my screen view is a little "glary;" as such, I'll reserve comment on the 11-S.
oops, and I had one more that I missed. (it must be cooler outside where you are, I'd be so mad at our triple digit temperatures that I wouldn't enjoy my lunch)
I gave the better coins grades in the AU range because the photos don't show luster, but the coins show a lack of wear, albeit some minor and not so minor scratches. I think the 14d = 20 as well.
I saw that too. I think that's something which migrated its way to my scanner bed and I didn't notice it. I looked that coin over quite extensively and didn't notice anything like that. Yep, I'm about to re-invest in a digital camera. I sold my DSLR 6 month's ago because "I don't need it anymore"......if only I knew.
Dang. My whole collection is probably worth only one of those coins lol. I agree with BT on the grade assessments...but, photos are much needed to determine more "precise" grades.
I think the '10, '11, and '14 have all 3 been harshly cleaned. And the '10 (scratched) and '11 (rim dings) both have other issues that would also put them in problem coin slabs.
GDJMSP - Well all I can say is that I hope that's not the case, but as my limited experience has shown.....it probably is. When you look at the 14 in the high resolution images you can see either dirt or tarnish deep into the coin's crevices on the obverse between the letters. Makes me think it has been cleaned. Anyways, they're off to PCGS! So lets see what happens. I'll post the grades or non-grades back here in a month or so.

The 1910-S Cleaned AU Details. The 1931-S Cleaned, and the verdict is still out on the 1911-S as it went a different service tier.
