    I like the 25, the reverse really is nice.

    Both coins pictured are very attractive examples!

    Both are nice but I like the 1825 best.

  • Would be hard to pick the best as they are both excellent coins.

    I'm going to choose the 1834 because I know how difficult a coin it is to find in high grades I think I lean towards it. Both nice examples. Why do you ask us to compare?

    1825 - I think the designs on obverse and reverse are better than the 1834.

    As far as eye appeal is concerned I feel they are both outstanding. As far as design is concerned I prefer the 1825, that giant rose is awesome.

    1825 for obvious reasons, my avatar is a hint. :D

    Both are nice though!

    I thought was reasonable to pose the question. As much as I like the images, both look better in hand. In terms of grades, I expected the 1825 to receive a higher grade which it did. The 1825 graded 64 and the 1834 graded 63
