Here is an example of what I am thinking.
A lovely and beautiful 1974-S Proof Ike dollar followed by

On a side note:
The pretty one isn't mine while the homely one is.

Do you have any examples of coins within a series and dates that would fall under this topic?

    Hey @braddick - How about (Same date/same type/same MM/same coin?)

    Sorry, couldn't resist.
