rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 1:11 pm Thank you so much for all the input! I'm so glad I found this forum. Quote: Moe145: I never would have upgraded from the first one Usually just whatever I come across I compare it to what I've already got, fill any holes I don't have, and keep one of everything. Kinda like catch and release. Sometimes you throw back some real nice ones. I'm going to try to stop by a long time friends coin shop sometime before the weekend is out and see his opinion in hand on the 'dipped' possibility. Right now, I'm sticking with #2 unless it's been dipped. Main reasons: Eye appeal, much more head detail on #2 under magnification, and #1 has a dark un-natural streak across the coin coming from the lower right side. One more side by side: High exposure: Low exposure: Report this Post to the Staff
rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 04/01/2011 12:30 am Went to the coin shop today, they agreed, the brighter SLQ had been dipped. Less wear on it though, plus sharper strike. Still can't decide. I'll be listing whichever I don't sell on ebay this weekend. Report this Post to the Staff
