NeoSpec Valued Member Canada 192 Posts	Posted 07/24/2016 1:03 pm the luster on coin one really appeals to me. It may just be a bad picture, but number 2 looks like it's been cleaned (to my super-novice eye). Report this Post to the Staff
weeds19 Valued Member United States 71 Posts	Posted 07/24/2016 3:51 pm As others have mentioned coin one has a much crisper strike and really looks nice, I don't think it is much of a contest. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/24/2016 4:49 pm Definitely #1. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 07/24/2016 10:38 pm #1 is a far superior coin. #2 makes MS64 only on technical 'wear' grade, the strike is terrible even for a NO coin.

jaxenro Pillar of the Community United States 533 Posts	Posted 08/01/2016 06:23 am I won coin 1 in the auction It was a little pricey compared to what it was supposed to be worth via the PCGS guide but I think it is an excellent example Question if this is allowed: PCGS has this one at $99 I paid more based on the strike what do you think? Value? Edited by jaxenro 08/01/2016 11:36 am Report this Post to the Staff
PAC Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 08/03/2016 09:33 am Coin 1 is definitely nicer and, in my opinion, graded a bit conservatively (looks like it deserves a '+' at least, to me). Given the price jumps pretty quickly after 64, I think a little over is fine for such a nice example. It partially depends on how much over whether it was "worth it" or not, however. Also, if you get it in hand and it still looks like a 64+, or especially a 65, it gives you a lot more wiggle room. Report this Post to the Staff
