Poll Question
Generally speaking, when comparing a proof coin to a reverse proof of the same coin, which do you prefer? I'm thinking of the overall look of the coins, not any specific issue. If you have any examples that you prefer one over the other, feel free to comment. Thanks for your participation.

Poll Choices
 Proof
 Reverse Proof
 50/50. I like them both equally

I really depends on the design. Some designs do not look good in reverse proof, others look a lot better than the proof version.

I agree with jbuck, it depends on the design. Some look good reverse where others do not.
