Hard to grade from your photos – I do see luster.

Did you purchase these raw on EBAY ?? There is only one seller of raw Indian Gold that I trust on EBAY, that would be Saratoga Springs coins.

Assuming they are genuine and not cleaned I would give the following grade range:

 

Both of your 1910- S coins look to be AU 58 – MS 61. This date and mint mark were always well struck with good luster.

The 1909 looks to be at least Au 58 as well. The reverse pictures are to blurry so I cannot tell if the softness on the top of the eagles wing feathers is strike , ware or just a bad angle.

so these is ok to send for grading??

its hard to be a newbie lol

 

Yep you are a real newb . :grin:

Go to numismedia and check the values of your circulated gold coin and compare it to what a 1910-s $ 5 Indian is worth MS condition.Even that 1909 has decent value in lower MS . That should be enough to answer your question as to why he should have these graded and your coin should be kept raw.

#1: AU55

#2: AU55

#3: MS61

#4: XF45

 

The first two were difficult and the last one the easiest to grade. I think the highest graded is #3. Beyond that it's pretty much a guess. I don't any with significant luster...the luster bands around the head of the eagle are missing in all cases. Then again the photos aren't really giving the coins a "chance" if you know what I mean.
