64 Imo.
brokering the coin, display purposes only?
looks like an au-58 to me. It may be unc, but I think it has minor circulation wear.
1st one I would call xf details cleaned, and the second one I would call vg-10. The front looks okay for the grade, but the reverse is blurry, so...
The scrape on the cheek is pretty significant, and as such cannot be graded. As GDJMSP mentioned, the scrape would be considered damage :(
There are several things that may have caused this. As bone mentioned, fire may cause this. Also, dipping a coin and not properly neutralizing it...
If I'm not mistaken one company already tried to utilize a computer program to grade coins, and it is my understanding that it failed miserably.

Looks like a nice f-15-20 to me.
Ben, Frank etc, Do you happen to know how often new Bust varieties are discovered? I know it is semi-frequent for thinks like morgan dollars, but...
Thanks for the tip Frank. :thumb: :D I found a physical address for him, do you happen to have a phone number or email address where I can reach...
