The 1998 is a little dirty, any ideas on grades? First two pics are of the 1998, second two pics are of the 2000.

It is difficult to grade coins from pictures when the natural lighting or subdued lighting isn't used. It would be only an educated guess at best, These seem to in fairly good condition but may be MS 66 or better.

Yes. Very hard to grade from these photos, but both coins are in beautiful shape! Looks like maybe both could go 64RD. Maybe the 2000 could even go 65RD!!
Big Congrats!!

Nice finds!
Do whatever you did in the FIRST picture. Notice how much better your white balance is in that one. Your white background is pinkish in the other pics which tells me your white balance was off for those. The coins don't look right either.

Took some new pics today. I used natural sunlight filtered through an index card to diffuse it. I also used a fish eye lens on my iPhone 5. I tried some post production in the first pic but the other three are unedited.
