These were cracked out of ANACS holders, for my Dansco, so they are essentially raw coins, though I retained the labels.
Please guess what you think ANACS graded them as (or your own personal opinion, or both, if you prefer).
Thanks in advance for playing!

Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value. Zero. Voltaire. Ebay coinbowlllc
AU55
AU58
1/2C: AU 53…if there is a twist, then AU details environmental damage
25X: AU 58…twist might be AU details scratch (upper left field on obverse)
Sorry, I should have specified that the twist is that they were cracked out, so everyone is guessing the grades on what are now considered raw coins, or what they were graded, rather than the traditional what they are graded.
I’ll show the labels during the grade reveal.

The 1806 looks like AU details, cleaned. Might even be lacquered.
Not sure on the 91 quarter. it does look cleaned, the reverse especially, but it may be the scan. Not sure about the scratch. if it goes under the right breast, then I agree with U1chicago.

AU55 on the Half Cent
MS63 on the Seated Quarter

I'd guess...
AU-53
MS-63
I did see that but thought it might be a double twist (and could be details hence you cracking them out for an album).
Love the half cent, first glance I thought large 6, no stems, whaaaat? I would say AU50
Beautiful toned Quarter. I would say AU58.
Nice pair. Let's see some more half cents from your album.

Beautiful coins, Especially the 1/2 cent
I tend to over grade early copper most of the time, but I think this one could just about be an AU58...
MS63 for the seated quarter, love the toning on that one!

I believe these were pretty early holders, and the grades pretty conservative. In retrospect it would be nice to still have them in those holders, but it’s been roughly 30 years since I cracked them out, and they certainly weren’t old at the time!
Most of the obverse and a little of the reverse toning on the quarter was induced by the 7070 album it’s been stored in all this time.
Cripes... I over-graded more than a little

Well... I thought the quarter was a 62 and the half cent a 50..... Seems I have been a bit optimistic lately. Cheers, RickO
Maybe they are a higher grade in today's grading environment.
I think you’re spot on, using current grading standards.
If I ever submit I’ll find out!
