MS-DOS 6.22 disk images

I have all four of ms-dos 6.22 setup disk images, but I am not sure if they are exact copies of the original disks.
Could someone with the original ms-dos 6.22 post an md5, sha1 sum or tell me of some other way to ensure that I have got the right images.
... right. Well, if that is your particular obsession, suggest you go & buy an 'original' copy from eBay.
It's software, not a Chippendale - arguably the original packaging is collectible, but fretting over (imaginary) differences in a few bytes smacks just a bit of OCD.
(and likely pirated copy as well)
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
