Hi guys,
Went to my favorite LCS today. She had these in the "Circulated" tray. At $5 a piece. Couldn't believe it! To me, these certainly look more like Uncirculated. Also, I cherry picked these not only because of its dazzling appearance for the money but I thought the two are surely "Full Split Bands"? What do you guys say? Did I do good?
Thank You.

    Hard to grade from those pictures, but my guess:

    1942-D: MS63 full bands
    1945-D: MS65 full bands

    .

    Nice coin for the price 👍

    No need to show closeups of the top and bottom bands. They’re meaningless with respect to the “FB” designation - only the middle ones matter.

    Better than the $5 price! I would have grabbed them to!

    Nice deal Joey.
    I think the 45D may be a just miss on the FB.

    Thanks, for some reason, I keep forgetting this? Do you know how many people reminded me of this, including you? Lol.
    Don't get old.
    Thanks ;)
