Jon Brand Pillar of the Community United States 1023 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 2:20 pm These are the two. I will reveal grades later. I know this is the wrong subforum but you can guess the grades if you want. Which do you like better? Not necessarily asking you to choose which you like based on grades, just what you are more attracted to personally. Excuse the low res photos, best I can do right now. Report this Post to the Staff

BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 2:22 pm I love the 2nd. Great color. EDIT to add: Is the 2nd one a proof? That color seems to follow proof strikes around. Edited by BigSilver 02/06/2018 2:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 2:49 pm 65 has a week reverse strike - I like the 64. Nice strike and toning. Report this Post to the Staff

Alpha2814 Pillar of the Community United States 2023 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 4:24 pm The 64 seems to have a sharper strike but the color just doesn't appeal to me. I'd take the 65 for pure eye appeal. Report this Post to the Staff
jmwilson Valued Member 240 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 4:25 pm I like the copper color of the 1865. Report this Post to the Staff
Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3324 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 4:40 pm Of course I like them both, one of my favorite designs. But, the motto pops so nicely on the '64 I'd have to vote for that one. And I personally like the toning. Add to it, the nice cracky die. I think I see a little action on the '65, but not quite as cool. "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff
BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 4:43 pm Just realized that the 64 is a small motto. So, even more desirable. Report this Post to the Staff
