Hmm... this is not an easy choice for me. Even though the last one is the only one without a Details grade, I am not a fan of its reverse. The second one is described as having surface hairlines, but the pictures are not good enough for me to tell how bad the hairlines are. I do like how the second one looks more than how the first one, but that might only be because of the pictures provided. Still, I am leaning more towards the second one, but I really cannot say for sure.

Yep it's been a hard choice. I'm more fond of the top two but the only drawback is they don't have a straight grade and are more common than the bottom one.

I am in the same boat as Joseph... last one is not a details grade and would be worth more probably at resale time, but I like the look of the second. If they are all the same price regardless of grade though I would probably take the last since I am usually one who takes details coins but at a good deal only.

I would not care what is on the label since I go for eye appeal.

Assuming they appear as they do in the photos as viewed on my screen, I think number has the best look. Number two looks cleaned and number three has too many distractions.

Now it comes down to the first and last dragons only. Searched the NGC photos and it's not really helping out, can't tell if the last one has eyes like a circle with a dot inside or just a dot. It has a sheet metal look to it in the photos.

I personally prefer the Sinkiang 5 miscals. This is actually a rotated die error. On top of this, higher grade Sinkiang coins can be somewhat difficult to find. Chilhi dollar coin - while it looks impressive due to it's size is actually somewhat more common.

Ouch.

Perhaps it will be for the best and you will find something even nicer.
