[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 3719792, member: 101855"][ATTACH=full]996809[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]996810[/ATTACH] Your coins all appear to be high end AU or low end Mint State. Some of the photos are a bit dark for grading. I would warn you that buying raw gold carries a risk. There have been counterfeits on the market for decades, as long as I've been a collector, which dates back to the 1960s. Nothing jumps out at me with the coins you have although I would be careful of the 1853 gold dollar. That one has been counterfeited for decades, and it is the most common date for counterfeit gold dollars. If it's any help, here is a high grade certified example.[/QUOTE]
