    If the second picture is indicative of how the actual coin looks, I'd say it's original.

    The second pic is the closest to what it looks like in hand.

    First coin is O'K.

    Second one I can't be sure of from the image.

    This is worse than grading from pics! image

    To me, the 37-S looks good to go, while I have a number of concerns regarding the originality of the 39...but what do I know?

    If the second one looks in hand like the first one, red not pinkish, then it should be ok also.
