I'd get the proof. I've always liked the early proofs.

If you like all three, but can only get one, pick the rarest one. So, you'd also go with the proof, seeing as how there were only 755 made? |

I would get the 1903 PCGS graded one, the eye appeal is very nice and it is a proof to boot  |

I would have to go with the CC; either way, both lovely coins to own.  |

I'll take the 89CC, who spent that? what did they buy with it? was it in a poker pot? Other are nice but too sterile for me. You do take Zemo? Right?  |

Interesting...
Before I read any of the replies, I asked myself the question of which I would buy and I couldn't definitively decide. I thought about it for a few minutes, and then posed the question this way - "If I owned all three and had to sell two, which would I keep?"
I immediately chose the 1903.

The proof. It's a beautiful coin.
I have never been particularly enamored of the idea that a mint mark alone suddenly renders a coin 100x the value. For the high grade coin, the grading process is so subjective that a single point shouldn't be worth a huge jump.

The CC is my choice. The proof would clash with all my crusty old copper  Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win". Dream On by Aerosmith Edited by cipster
