On BS&T Now: Nothing. Fighting the Fight for 11 Years with the big "C" - Never Ever Give Up! Member PCGS Open Forum board 2002 - 2006 (closed end of 2006) Current board since 2006 Successful trades with many members, over the past two decades, never a bad deal.
I expected Coin B to win, but not necessarily by that wide of a margin. The TrueViews for coins A and C don't fully capture their beauty in hand (most photos don't). There is more blue rim toning on the obverse of A than is apparent and some pretty red along the bottom of the reverse. Coin C has fantastic luster that really illuminates the toning (particularly on the reverse) and was acquired well over a decade ago, so it has a lot of sentimental value as one of the earlier coins in my set. The hit to the torch is a negative, admittedly.

A, it has the toning I hate the least, imho, thanks for the chance
I like the color and even surfaces of coin B the best.

My feelings exactly.
Great coin.
C>B>A
I selected A because the color doesn't hide the details of the coin.

I voted for coin B. The bluish tint is more attractive imo.
I like A for the strongest strike and best color.

B
Would of been C except for mark on torch. All nice tho.
If we were all the same, the world would be an incredibly boring place.
