Any of these worth sending in? 0

Sorry for so many questions, wondering if these would grade high enough to warrant the cost?

For the two 1889s, I don't think so. The second has a pretty significant ding right on her jawline, a prime focal area so it wouldn't come close. The first seems better but you'd need to get to MS65 to clear the $100 threshold that many use to determine if a coin is worth slabbing. I am not good at grading over 58/60 but I'm confident the first 1889 would not hit MS65.

The 1921 is extremely common, sorry to say. Again, you'd need to clear MS65 to be in that $100 range according to our host's price census. The coin has too many dings and scratches on the cheek to be near that grade. On the reverse there's a large something between "we" and "trust". It is most likely a ding, but if it is raised check the VAMs on VAMWorld (http://www.vamworld.com/wiki/1921-P_VAMs) just to be sure. I didn't see anything but I also am not spending huge amounts of time scrolling through all those VAMs. Most aren't recognized by the TPGs, so even if you have a VAM you'll need to be sure it is recognized -- and worth sending in.
