I need some help determining which one of the following two coin sets to keep.

I like both Austrian 2 guldens , one seems to be circulated and has the old silver like patina I really like. on the other hand the other coin seems to be uncirculated but perhaps cleaned ?

I cant see a difference in the quality of these two Serbian 5 dinars. I think this type easily wears on kings face.

Thank you both, could you explain little bit why you would choose one over the other ?

Top coin in both sets of photos.
Definitely.
That natural dark toning is exquisite.

For the first coin, the second pic does look as though it could be MS, but looks cleaned, whereas the toning is very nice on the first pic.

For the second coin, they look like they have similar surfaces, but there's more detail in the shield on the first pic.

That was my reasoning.
