The 1817 looks to have the reverse milling characteristics of an O.106, but it might have the single leaf characteristic of an O.106a. If it has the single leaf then I would use that to trump the milling and call it an O.106a. I'll check the 1832 if I have time.
The 1817 qualifies as the single-leaf O.106a, IMO. It is worth returning to have it properly attributed even though PCGS bb'd it for cleaning (the hairlines in the left obverse, I suppose).
The 1832 was properly attributed as an O.118 but I am a little surprised it straight-graded due to the obverse damage. I am not sure I would have spent the money to have it graded.

Thank you for the quick responses. I was wrong on the 1832. The 1817 should have been an 0-106a.
Both coins were bought raw for less than $300 and were sent in with my 8 free submissions. That is the reason for the submissions and true views. The 1817 is going back.

& the die crack thru the left wing tip to U, but not
yet continuing thru UNITED to the D.
The 1832 small letter best fits the O-118 with the vertical
die line at the lips & the double left corner of the shield.
