Which do you prefer? 1960-D Washingtons for the toner Dansco.

SkyManSkyMan Posts: 9,507 ✭✭✭✭✭
Given good old coin collector OCD, I've actually already started TWO spare Danscos. My A toner Dansco 1960-D slot has already has been filled, this is to determine which Washingtons will go into the B and the C Danscos. As you can see, even the C toner Dansco will have some nice coins in it. I hope you enjoy them. The numbers I have assigned to these 3 coins is not necessarily the way I would rank the coins. Please let me know how you would rank the coins. The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.

    2, 3, and a distant third because of marks on the reverse, 1.

    1. I like the flashy luster best.

    First one, here.

    Thank you folks for all your kind words and input!!!

    It is a difficult decision, as can be shown by the final voting scores for each coin. I've totaled and tabulated the final results from the 3 coin websites I posted to, e.g. the PCGS boards, the NGC boards and Coin Talk. Here are the final results for each coin. FWIW, my choice (was and) is currently to place # 2 in the B Dansco, # 3 in the C Dansco and # 1 in a red 2 X 2 box with my other spare coins. Personally I quite like the toning on # 1, but the hits on the reverse do affect the overall appeal of the coin. I will wait until I have all 3 coins back here, (plus my A Dansco one), to give them a final comparison to see which will go in which Dansco. IMO, they are all nice coins, so I can't really go wrong. Anyhow, here are the final voting tallies. Note that the votes don't all add up, as some people only picked one coin.

    # 1
    Five 1st place,
    Four 2nd place,
    Fifteen 3rd place.

    # 2
    Twelve 1st place,
    Eleven 2nd place,
    Three 3rd place.

    # 3
    Fourteen 1st place,
    Six 2nd place,
    Three 3rd place.

    I'll probably be posting complete date/mm runs for, first, my B Dansco, and then, second, my A Dansco. FWIW, I'd still like to try and upgrade the 1942-P, and 1951 P & D Washingtons in the A Dansco. Hopefully I'll be able to go to the ANA this summer in Anaheim.
