TMI......:)
Which one is older? :) PS - from the pictures the second has the nicer color of the two. :)
I would say 64 and 65 in that order. I think the pictures don't really show the luster that is on the coins. 2 very nice coins.
Nice pickup - I think it looks at least 55. Congrats and I agree with medjoy. Stop by there often to see what else you might find.
Certain sniping tools are fine. A lot of others use them and they do work. And at times you see hi-jacked accounts on ebay. Not sure how much it...

Congrats.
Remember when you could remember when. :)
Too me it seems like tumbling coins would cause more hits than wear. I would not try it, but you could always get a rolls of 2016 coins and see...
Sorry to hear about you grandfather. He left you some really nice coins and watches.
