I recently aquired both of these for my 7070 and will be keeping one. Which one do you like better. The first is a coin I purchased about a 2 months ago at a brick and mortar shopfor $180. The second I just purchased off of Ebay a couple of days ago for $150, and it is one of the old Anacs photo certificate. The color is very accurate on both coins

#2. Both are Nice XF coins, the first one looks like it might be hiding some cleaning, but over all, both are nice!

#2 has a great original look.

Look at the stars on the obverse, feathers on the reverse. The 2nd coin is clearly the winner!

And to me XF.

#2 is the one I would keep.

I fell in love with number 2 the first time I laid eyes on it.

Plus you get a cool, old , ANACS certification card.

Another vote for #2.

Check them both for S/S, very common, but cool.

I'm jumping on the #2 bandwagon- it even has a cool photo certificate to boot.

I like them both, but like #2 more. About the only way I'd substitute #1 is if it more closely matches the look of the other coins in the 7070 to keep some continuity.

CoinAddict · March 30, 2007 10:23AM

I like #1. There is just something about a coin with a nice even patina throughout that I like.

I like both, but the second hasnt been touched. First should have more luster in the hidden spots for the amount of wear. You did well on price I might add.

I'd also keep #2. But #1 is very close!

#1. More consistent look obv./rev.

Rollerman · March 30, 2007 11:15AM

I like things about both coins and see why you are having trouble deciding...I think it would be nice to leave the 2nd coin in the old ANACS holder and not break it out to put in your Dansco.
I think for this sound advise, you should just send me that 2nd coin. It would be a big improvement over my VG model of the same date and MM.
Best wishes,
Pete

Coin #2 has more luster, better detail, and a nice cameo look, provided that the toning is good. The splotches of toning on the rims make me wonder.

I'm working on a 70/70 and would pick the #2 coin but both are nice.
