    I picked up these five coins today. I wanted to see what you folks thought of them. Feel free to weigh in with grades, fair values, opinions or whatever you want to say.

    I'm slightly worried about the greenish spots on the half cent. Should I be? It's not the dreaded P word is it? :/

    I'll let you know what I paid for them later on :)

    I love that quarter with the rays, its a beauty. The half dime is pretty nice as well.

    They're probably my two favs too although I really like the look of the other quarter. :)

    1803 1/2 c - VG8. Hard to tell from the photos, but there might be enough detail on the bust to justify a higher grade. I say that because the legends are so solid; often, they are so weak. Seems pretty well struck.

    1873 10c w/ arrows - VF details, maybe better, but very harshly cleaned. A favorite type of mine.

    1873 h10c - questionable authenticity. Just doesn't look right to me. VF details.

    Are you talking about the reverse, around 10 o'clock ? Hard to tell from photos, but that looks like verdigris.
