A couple of toned Seated half dollar upgrades

On the way to a cruise vacation, I made a usual stop at US Coins in Katy, TX (a burb of Houston). I usually find something nice each time, but this trip turned out to be twice as nice. These two Seated halves jumped out of the case when I spotted them. What makes it even better is that these dates are not considered all that common in this series. Both coins are graded AU-55 and appear to be original with attractive toning. The 1872 has a very nice prooflike obverse which really brings out the toning.
I have very nice VF-35's already and usually stick with that grade, but these two coins were hard to resist!

Great looking coins!
Wow,........
You just gotta keep looking. You never know what you might find or where you might find it.
Really nice looking coins there.
Nice, and well worth the visit. Hard to locate them that nice. Don’t get hooked on the 55’s!
Great work!

Those are perfect. Congrats.
Great pics too, as usual.

The detail on the 1866 looks like it would grade AU58....Cheers, RickO
Really nice look to those coins!
Nice
Excellent pick's.
Nice looking coins in a series that has suffered from dipping/cleaning in recent decades.
Those are nice. Like the look of the 72 a lot.
FANTASTIC!
