what's there looks nice. Don't know about the reverses. They look like they were
collected contemporaneous to their dates. Any with "D", or "S" mints have the most value.
On the first set there are at least two in the wrong spot near the 1915-1916 area.
What's the story about who collected them and when?

Some may have condition problems, but a few nice examples.

Always nice to find a group like those.
Good luck!

Yeah, I'm seeing some that may be AU and messed with, hard to tell from the pics but the 11-D, 11-S and 26-S look like they may have been messed with in an attempt to improve their appearance.
Some of the others may bag for questionable color (especially the 15-D and 24-D).
Given the persnickety nature of graders these days a lot of what once was "market acceptable" has been deemed not to be anymore.
Most of the rest are probably best enjoyed and/or sold raw, as the cost of slabbing would probably be more than the difference in value between these coins in and out of plastic.

It's difficult with the rest not in hand.
Some nice conditions....might like the back porch for a few months.
<< <i>Not sure any would slab as they all looked dipped/cleaned. >>
Yes, it looks like there were some nice AU and lower grade UNCs but they got messed with.
I'd sell em raw, most or all won't grade.
I think you might get better feedback from individual photos of both sides.
Good luck!

<< <i>Thr 1926 looks stunning!!! >>
This one looks 100% natural, it's a fairly well-stuck date in general with a high proportion of "gem" survivors.

Hopefully that alone makes up for all the rest.
