Which do you prefer, and how would you grade them? The first one I think may have better obverse details, but has a large scuff beneath "In God" on the obverse. Certfied as damaged, but still has great eye appeal

This one is problem free and certified as well

First one: VF/EF details.
Second one: VF-35.

I'd take the second one in a heartbeat.

At first glance, I preferred the look of the first, but looking longer, as the marks come forth, I had to go with the second.

Ok, well here is the dilemma I am in. The 1st coin I had slabbed by ANACS. It slabbed XF40 damaged. As I want my slq set to be problem free, I decided to sell it. I sold it for $480.
The 2nd coin is for sale as an NGC VF30. The seller is asking $540 for it, which is very high for a VF30. However, I feel the details on this coin are exceptional for the grade, and very close to XF, which is the minimum requirement for my SLQ set. Problem free XF 27-s coins are VERY expensive, many into 4 figure territory, or close to it.....and I am not Now I can overpay a bit for a very strong VF30....which might make the cut. or wait it out. thoughts? Do you think $540 is a fair price for the 2nd coin all things considered?

John, I don't like problem coins, so I think you made a good move to get rid of the first 27s.
Greysheet in vf goes 240 and 750 in xf .. So I would wait until a more fairly priced 27s came along.. My 2 cents
Rest in Peace
