Hello:
Picked these up for next to nothing at a garage sale last month and just getting around to sharing. I don't collect them but like them since these were some of the few types of coins I had as a kid. They seem pretty beat up but thought I would post to learn from the experts. Sorry have not figured out how to combine front/back images into one, therefor the first 3 are the obverses respectively, the next 3 the reverses in order - sorry for the inconvenience. I shot several series of them, these were the best. Still working on light and such. There is better luster in real life on the reverses that I just couldn't seem to capture.

They're either AU58 or low MS, but as mentioned the scratches are pretty severe. Of course, if you picked them up for "next to nothing" and you just want them because they make you happy then there is essentially no downside at all to them.

I don't think any are UNC.
Agreed had no intention of sending in but was curious. Thank you very much.
61's at best
Very ordinary common date AU coins. If they were cheap I'd sell them quickly and take my profit.
Already going down that road….but they do bring back memories.
55-58 range
If "next to nothing" is $25 each or less, you did OK.
@Fairfaxthunder .... For 'next to nothing', they are nice Peace Dollars.... Not uncirc.... low AU IMO. Cheers, RickO
Back in the 70s and 80s, catalogs would sell "Commerical Uncs," and these Peace dollars would represent the quality received.
