Thats when it is time to crack them out, get a nice pic and plug it into a Dansco Bust Album.

I think your 1823 is O.103. One of the marriages with a perfect 3 in the date. Many of the 1823's have problems with the 3, not yours though. I can't rightly tell from the photo but you may or may not be able to see some fine verticle lines between the left wing and head of the eagle. The text says that this shows up on the higher graded coins. They may be talking about mint state stuff though. I'd be interested to know if you can see them in hand or with a loupe.
The 1833 is giving me some problems. Perhaps someone else can take a stab at and see what they come up with. I'm thinking it may be an O.114 but at this point I wouldn't put any money on that bet. Anyone?

There's not as much luster on the reverse as the obverse but I can see some very faint lines between the head and leaft wing. I really need to buy an Overton variety book...
