So you can cheat and go to Coinfacts and look at these to answer, but throw your opinion in before you do that. Both are graded MS BN by PCGS. What coin do you think the grades are and which one has more eye appeal?   *** Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. *** |

Although both are NT (i'm assuming), I like the top one better. I might be biased though, because I've never liked vibrantly blue or purple coppers.

2nd one has better eye appeal
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Here is the reveal....
Top coin is graded MS65+BN.
Bottom coin is graded MS64BN.
The bottom coin looks way better than a 64. It looks like the bottom coin has fewer marks and definitely is lacking the stain on the face. If you look at PCGS coin facts, you can find examples of coins graded the same that really should not be.

I prefer the bottom coin. Its luster is much stronger which should support a higher grade. I'd guess MS-64 for the top coin, MS-65 for the bottom.

Congrats for even having this "problem". I personally like the look of the top one. Enjoy either way, they are beautiful.
