7 different grading slabs — How would YOU rank them from worst to best respected?

Hi everyone!
I have these 7 different slabs and I’d like to know the community’s opinion on them.
Could you rank the grading slabs from least respected to most respected?

question: Which coin inside its slab do you think is the best one?

1960 Roosevelt Dime graded MS70 by SGS… but it looks terrible? Does it have any value?

Hi everyone,
I have these 1960-P Roosevelt dimes that come encapsulated as MS70 by SGS (with the “America’s Grading” label).
The problem is that they don’t look like MS70 at all. They have visible wear, spots, and generally look like circulated or low-grade coins. I’m really confused how they received the highest possible grade (MS70 is supposed to be perfect with no defects).

Any information is appreciated. Thanks!

What to do about 1909

This 1909 penny I found (in a bag of loose change) seems to have some adhesive or something on it? What should I do? Is an acetone bath going to ruin it? I don’t care too much about resale unless someone can talk me out of it. Sorry for the crappy picture I can take it out of the flip for a follow up if needed.

Found this 1911-S Lincoln cent. Is it a Semi Key Date? Does it have any value above face value? Thanks!

Is this common for this year?

Found this wheat cent at a flea market and snagged it for a $1... Never really seen anything like this except for on 1943 Steel Cents. Input??? Thanks a bunch.

New to these and was just passed down some.

So my grandfather worked on a farm and was paid anywhere from 7-5 cents a day(I believe). He passed them down to my father i suppose and my father passed, just found these the other day selling our childhood home growing up. 4 LARGE white bank bags I believe with a straw material tied on the top. They're all filled to the brim i'm trying to do extensive research, but wow there is a lot! Maybe 15,000 all together maybe 30,000. I couldn't even esimate properly yet. I've gone through about 300 and have seen almost every year 1909-1958. Mint marks on a lot and mint marks on a lot. Lot of the 1950's look brand new idk if that's worth more given those dates. Either way I thought it would be cool to make a post and share my story so far. I guess I have a lot of work to do and figure all this out!

Newbie Auestion

My wife’s grandfather passed away and he had a few partially filled wheat penny books she wants to try and get filled so we can one day give them to our son. Based on the pictures what would be a best guess on how much it would cost to get these filled? Any other advice would be greatly appreciated as I’m new to this

Found a stash of about 30 Wheat Pennies! Dates range from 1917 to 1958

Hey everyone, I managed to put together a set of about 30 Wheat Cents. I've organized them as best as I could in these pictures shows the heads and shows the tails.

​The top pair are from 1917, and I have a variety from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. I see a couple of steel pennies (1943) and one with some heavy green patina.

​Are there any standouts here that I should get closer looks at? Any info on key dates or potential errors would be much appreciated!

Found a wheat penny

I found a very old wheat penny that ethier has the year of 1925 or 1947 it's got that green stuff all over it and is kinda bent but can I sell it for anywhere near the ones I saw for 1500 I'm guessing that's only if they are in mint condition this one is very dirty and old here is a picture as well even though It is not the best quality I'm truly sorry but my camera is very bad and has no flash

Error?

Liberty on the 1957 penny and the whole 1946 and 1944 penny. I personally think it's just regular wear and tear but I'm not 100 percent sure.

Some Key Dates I Think

Hi everyone, I'm not really a wheat cent collector and I am helping a friend with a family collection. They had a trifold with a 1909 VDB, 1909, 1909 S, 1910 S, 1911 S, 1912 S, 1913 S, 1914 S, 1914 D, 1923 D, 1931 S.

I have been asked to help determine value and to make an offer to purchase. Does anyone have any idea on what's fair for these? I'm checking ebay sold comps and reddit threads and there seems to be a decent spread with grade and condition. I'm not the best grader, but a few of these looked cleaned, so I would assume a details designation.

Thanks for your help!
