  95 - F15
  
  94 - VF20 details, excessive dings on the shield.

  I agree. The '94 has a few dings but less wear.

  95 VF20
  94 VF30-35, maybe slightly lower due to marks

  The 1895 half has all the details of a solid VF...except the technical complete LIBERTY. I would grade if VF20-25 and I would bet money that PCGS would too. for the 94-S, a squeeker VF20.

  I agree with Tyler. Both coins are market graded as VF 20.

  I think PCGS would call them both 15-20

  Positive BST transactions with: too many names to list! 36 at last count.

  Nice even ware, I would say vf-20on the 95 and f-15 on the 94. Nice coins~ they look original.

  The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

  I would say both F-15, but then again I've seen my PCGS coins in VF holders that I would have called fine.

  94 easy vf20, in this case you can even begin to see the band under liberty despite liberty being weak. Strong vf detail on reverse.
  95 close but would fall to a 15 due to marks. Raw it's fine money.
  95s vg8
  15 is a vg10

  We're all born MS70. I'm about a Fine 15 right now.
