I like this one a tad bit better than your other picks. It doesn't knock my socks off but it has a bit of natural toning that's charming.

I like the '43 that you posted in the other thread. Just a slightly better eye appeal.

I certainly like that one too. 55 with a color I like to see on SD.

I think the 1843 is nicer based on the posted pics. If you buy it I would have it reholdered as the slab seems to be really scratched up. Were you the buyer of the 1843? Everest indicated that auction had concluded. If you bought it congrats.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Another picture of this coin. Hard to imagine it is the same?

I think the first set of pictures are a more accurate. Did you take the second set of pics? They look washed-out.
