I'd choose coin 2. Looks like a better strike to me.

I hate spots and coin #1 has what looks like a mushy center strike, so I’d choose coin #2.
Always buying nice toned coins! Searching for a low grade 1873 Arrows DDO Dime and 1842-O Small Date Quarter.
I'll take door Number two. Good strike, smooth surfaces and no spots.

No. 2 strike
From the pics, neither appeal to me.
Number 2 due to the superior strike.
Agree with all answers above.
I like #2 better also for some the reasons mentioned previously (Strike, lack of spots).

Number two....It has better detail both sides.... Cheers, RickO
What percentage of the responses did you think might favor the first coin? What is the point of this thread?

You could almost make a case for coin #2 being mint state.
