    I'm going out on a limb here and someone will likely slap me upside my head. The first two look original but the third may have seen an old cleaning and then re-toned. I think I see some left overs on the third that could not be cleaned. It appears you are in the mid MS range. But wait for the others. They are all pretty to these old eyes.

    Oh, I don't think the third has been cleaned & retoned . . . I suspect it will grade the best of the three coins.

    I feel the third is the best as well. Nice luster.

    The background is the outside cover of a jewelers book with the black felt interior to show ring's etc. I will take the three coins to a dealer today for grading. Thanks for the input as it is very helpful to us new collectors

    The fellows at our local coin club graded the 1903 as MS 65 toned RB?, 1907 as MS 64, Rainbow toned, RB and the 1908 as MS 65, toned, RB. It was fun being with other collectors showing and discussing coins. Now I will send them in to be graded and placed in plastic
