OT: Going on vacation PNNA

So, I wanted to post some coin pics (since I am going on vacation for a week 
).
I figured a coin thread would be off topic since so many people love to have non-coin posts here lately
(look Ma, no edits
)
These are from last weekend's show (I have tried to put PNNA in all the titles, even this one) and I had purchased ~20 coins for ~$200 (3 of the coins accounted for $125 of that amount).
I took my son and, for these, we were looking for toned Roosies. He has a raw set and a registry set and we wanted to see if we could find some nice raw ones to get graded. Regrettably, none of these are likely plastic candidates for his registry set, but, he liked them, the price was right (cheap), so we bought them.
In addition to the franklins, kennedys, washingtons, filipino coins, and these roosies, we also got a couple of mercs (at the bottom here)....I can blame Ken (Fairlaneman for us having to get those ).
You're welcome to guess any grades...I haven't tried to grade them yet. I know what the dealers put but we bought them based on price and if we liked them.
Some of the darker toning didn't come out well in the pics....all are colorful, some just darker than others until tilted just right....
To those that enjoy making the OT (non-coin posts), sorry if you entered this thread by mistake and had to see coins on the US Coin Forum

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Moi?
I am already sunburned (taking an internet hit for a few minutes right now).
Beach, sun, the pool (all my son wants to do is hang out at the pool), and at an all-inclusive....
It was raining and chilly when we left Seattle airport on Weds morning....and sweated when we arrived in Puerto Vallarta
