Default Wanting Someone To Grade These Coins!

Hello Greg, Pappy, Wyatt, Bobbie, Metalman, Pete and others I may have left out (needing assistance from anyone willing to help)! I've took close scans and stitched them so everyone can see the details on these coins that I've dug from Civil War Camps. I would appreciate any and all input as to the grade of these coins. 1850-O, 1853, 1853-O, 1856 I & 1856 II.
Thanks In Advance For All The Assistance & Help,
Happy Hunting, Roger

Default have any of them been cleaned or dipped?

i can grade them by the offical PCGS Standerds but for 100% you need to send them in.

Hi Roger,
First let me say them are mighty nice finds. Just the thought of them being carried by a Civil War Soldier is exciting. It's hard to see the detail but I would say all of them are Fine or better with a few being much better than fine.
Being these were recovered at a Civil war site the value would be higher just for that reason.

Give me a call today if you can

Greg

ROGER, Those are some of the best I have seen. I agree with Tom that it would be well worth your time to send them and get them graded by PCGS...PAPPY

WOW Roger! Those are beautiful for dug coins! I am still not clear on the grading thing but I will, and would, leave it up to the professionals.
Best Regards,
Travis

Hi Roger.......Those are some great coins. The seated Liberty series is one I haven't studied much. I would agree with Greg though. The coins range in grade from F to XF. I would need larger scans of them to assess each individually. It's hard from small images, to assign a grade that won't be arbitrary.
