Here they are!

For some reason the reverse of the 1836 won't show because, again it says that the KB is to high. But whatever, those of you who can identifiy the grades of these, give me your thoughts. Also I need help on what type the 1836 is.

    Nice detail on the 1829, but I don't like the scratch on the obverse field in front of Ms. Liberty's face. And the 1836 doesn't look too bad. Get the manual for your camera, and figure out how to set the white balance so the color is correct. Use a sheet of computer paper under the same lighting to set the white balance correctly

    No, its white, weird lighting I guess. Oh yeah, I know some of you noticed the gash in the 29' but I think its actually quite neat looking, yes its damage, but I think its cool. For the price I paid, and the detail, in the coin, im not complaining.

    You can fix the pink with white-balance and make the colors more natural. You just need to see if the camera has a white balance adjustment.
