They are both PCGS67, but the new one is MUCH prettier. Sorry Ricko. ;) I don't usually replace a coin with a coin of the same grade, but if I find one I like better why not. Thanks for looking and comments welcome. :)

    Excellent choice for the upgrade. I definitely agree with you that it is nicer than #1. Congrats!!

    Both are extremely attractive but I gotta like the bottom one with the color just a tad more. Congratulations on two gorgeous beauties

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Absolutely, but from where I'm sitting, and I'm sure it's the light angle on the new dime, I like the old one better. Has better looking bands too.


    Later, Paul.

    Both are very nice. #2 gets the nod for color and obverse. The bands are nice on the first.

    congrats on ur pickup, question, on coin #2, those look like scratches on roosie's face, or is that a part of the toning? i prefer #1 to be honest, imho
