    A woman I know was cleaning out an old house and gave me some coins and tokens that she found.

    The tokens were mostly Las Vegas casino dollar chips from the 1970's.

    The coins were some US coins including a Booker T. Washington half 1946-S (not shown) and four half dimes.

    Any ideas on the condition of these coins?

    What a nice lady!
    I'm sure you're not looking a gift horse in the mouth but the condition is
    difficult to say w/ pics. I'd guess they range from good to Fine.

    Looks like 1863 is a semi-key...?

    1844 VG-7
    1861 AG-3
    1863 G-6
    1871-S VF-30

    The 1863 is a much better date. It’s listed in the Grey Sheet for $160.
