Notified on grades on 3 german state pieces in from across the street! (exclamation point should indicate I am happy with the results). All pieces I have shared over the last few months. Any guesses?

    Because of your exclamation point I hesitate to guess but nice looking and I would love to have them regardless of actual grades rec'd in my hoard of pieces I have. Nice pick ups!!!

    I would guess, AU55 for the first. AU58 details, contamination for the second and maybe 55 details because of the maybe improper cleaning (looks like hairlines to me on the fields)... But since I can't tell for sure by the pics why not send them to me on permanent loan so I can further my own personal edification on the types in hand as compared to others I may ever see or not see in the future.

    Thanks all. I thought they all had a good chance of grading, but I just do not have that critical eye for it yet. Every piece I send is a ride on the anxiety wagon. Rick - I see what you mean by the pics - they do look damaged, but the lighting has much to do with that. Thanks you for the offer, but you lost me at permanent. image Here is the outcome:

    1761 german states (munster) taler - sede vacante NGC AU-53 (my estimate: EF-45)
    1779 german states (wurzburg) medal (44 mm)- sede vacante NGC MS-62 (my estimate: MS-61)
    1779 german states (passau) medal (45 mm)- sede vacante NGC MS-63 (my estimate: MS-64; helped by a strong strike)
