Poll/Vote - Which Rainbow Top Pop 55S Lincoln Is The Best Looking??

Coppercolor · June 17, 2015 12:49PM

I'll put the favorite of the board into my showcase registry

Lincoln 1:

Lincoln 2:

Lincoln 3:

The first one and last one I felt had a shot at 67+RB or 68RB. Monster surfaces. But I don't mean to influence, I'm asking about eye appeal.

Edited to Add: Sorry about the amateur poll, I don't know how to set one up!

AUandAG · June 17, 2015 12:53PM

Where's the poll???

Ah, never mind, I'll just vote for #2.

I'm not wild about #2. Tough call between 1 and 3, but I think I'd pick #3.

#1 for me. I like the reverse more than #3.

#2 has some distractions.

That leaves a very nice #1 and #3 with the nod going to #3

So I agree with CoinJunkie.

This David agrees exactly.

#1 made me say "wow" to myself. It doesn't have a full strike but it's good enough, and no major distractions. #3 is also very beautiful, and has a better strike, but more distractions. So I vote #1

lasvegasteddy · June 17, 2015 2:54PM

<<< #1

it just looks smoothest on my eyes to look at

little distractions grab my eyes on the other 2

TomB · June 17, 2015 2:57PM

Number three.

TopographicOceans · June 17, 2015 2:57PM

I clicked on 3, but it didn't take my vote

WildIdea · June 17, 2015 3:04PM

I like them all for sure.

#1 does it for me though. Real even toning on both sides well matched.

#2 very vibrant but the color transitions a little harsh. Not a problem if it wasn't in this group and viewed in its own company.

#3 seems the same as coin #1 but has the minor hit in left upper field, so the first coin is superior in that minuscule way,

Just my taste, all super cool man.

1

segoja · June 17, 2015 3:39PM

all are great

1 is best

2 a tad dull compered to 1

3 don't like the cut left obv field.

shish · June 17, 2015 5:18PM

I vote #1, it has great eye appeal. It doesn't have a full strike but it's good enough, and no major distractions. #3 is also very attractive, and has a better strike, but more distractions.

jcping · June 17, 2015 5:43PM

Based on the photos, I pick the first coin.

jdimmick · June 17, 2015 6:03PM

#1 fresh , balanced color no distractions (my choice)
#3 also nice color, but mark in field and possibly on Lincoln hair.
#2 color is not as balanced, and spots and distractions

deltadimeman · June 17, 2015 6:16PM

3

Flatwoods · June 17, 2015 8:56PM

#1

Michael4692 · June 17, 2015 9:03PM

No 2. No 3 is close. The reverse on No 2 takes the cake.

Coppercolor · June 17, 2015 9:54PM

Crumb. No consensus at all. At least I'm not the only one.

rmpsrpms · June 17, 2015 10:24PM

I count 11 votes for #1, 2 votes for #2, and 5 votes for #3.

1Mike1 · June 17, 2015 10:35PM

I like 3 the best.

GrumpyEd · June 17, 2015 10:46PM

It's close but I pick #3.

DIMEMAN · June 17, 2015 10:49PM

#1 - They all are pretty, but 2 and 3 each have small ticks. Number 1 has none.

ElmerFusterpuck · June 17, 2015 11:14PM

Ahhhhh, so you are the one making more! I submit mine, which was the first 67-RB for the 1955-S, all in good fun of course. None of your 3 below are slouches, but I lean towards #1.

SkyMan · June 18, 2015 12:41AM

# 3

DaveWcoins · June 18, 2015 1:05AM

#1

Ablinky · June 18, 2015 1:08AM

#2 for me

DAM · June 18, 2015 1:17AM

I'm not a fan of a mushy O in ONE.

For that reason, I chose #3.

ricko · June 18, 2015 1:26AM

I will be the usual exception.... prefer the red,as minted condition... these all miss that level. Cheers, RickO

grip · June 18, 2015 1:29AM

Tough call between 1 and 3, but I think I'd pick #3.

johnny9434 · June 18, 2015 1:33AM

#3. best of luck

Well, Erik, you must remember I tried to buy your 55S about five or six years ago, unsuccessfully. So I've been on a tear. Remember the fire red one I had graded 67RB about four years ago? Then this group (plus three more) came my way. BTW the others graded 65RD and 66RB.

For the record I still like yours the best because I like crazy color. Have you changed your mind about selling/trading????????????????????????????

winky · June 18, 2015 8:10AM

I like #1.

PRECIOUSMENTAL · June 18, 2015 8:15AM

Hard to tell, I will go with number 1.
Here is why it was hard to choose, "I used to be indecisive, now I'm just not sure......"

georgiacop50 · June 18, 2015 8:18AM

1

thenibbler · June 18, 2015 8:22AM

I like # 3

SanctionII · June 18, 2015 8:31AM

#1 and #3 are evenly matched.

If #3 did not have he mark in the upper left obverse field it would be the winner over #1 because is has a better strike. In hand I expect that the mark on #3 is not as noticeable as the weak reverse strike on #1. If so, then #3 is the winner.
