PNG member, numismatic dealer since 1965. Operates a retail store, also has exhibited at over 1000 shows. I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.
I like #3 for overall details but I think each of these coins has probably been cleaned at some point in their lifetimes. #1 turned out splotchy... #2 (cleaned and retoned) probably has the most eye appeal. #3 has the best details but the toning is strange to me.
Collecting: Dansco 7070; Middle Date Large Cents (VF-AU); Box of 20;

I agree with that, too.
All are nice - but # 2 spoke to me.....take me away....

Coin collecting is not a hobby, it's an obsession !
