    I like the Nicaraguan piece best. The Greek piece looks like somebody tried to kill the king with an axe, but it obviously has nice luster.

    image I agree, there's a few scratches on the reverse too, don't send this in Marty, it will probably be bodybagged and you can easily find it in gem quality.

    Love that Nicaraguan piece. The smiling sun coming up behind the mountains is extremely cool.

    The 5 sen piece is nice save for the significant hairlines on the reverse. The Nicaragua piece is absolutely superb, and I believe that reverse is one of the true classics of numismatics. Was that coin minted in the US? It looks like a 66 or better. Wow. The Greek piece has great luster, but I have no idea as to its scarcity. Congrats on the scores!
