Tough call with those pics, they both look really nice for sure.
So... no one has said it yet, Get them both.
Spending other people money is so fun.

Thats a tough choice. I think a lot of the thought process from the comments is the pic quality for #1. It looks like a duplicate to a near unc Eagle I bought and posted a pic of on another thread. Before you posted the second graded pic. I would have chosen #2 as well. Not so sure now.

I like the 1881, cleaner face. Both are beautiful coins though! The scuff on the bottom of the neck of the 85 would bother me more than the neck scuff on the 81.

For me it's the 1885. Both are beautiful but the 85 is the strongest if you ask me.
