I keep being attracted to Columbians. I have managed to bring my hoard down to just three toned examples and one blast white. I have a slight favorite but wouldn't want to kick any of these out of the collection. Which one would you pick as your favorite?

    1 and #4 different but those are the 2 I would be happy owning.

    I prefer collecting coins in lower circulated condition G04 to F12

    As I really like the toned ones, I have to like #4 as it looks like a PL which would be unique for me.

    The 4th one is a PL (graded by NGC as MS 63 PL). I had been looking for a clean (non-hazy) PL for a while and finally found this one earlier this year.

    I’m a fan of the 58* and the PL 93’.

    The 58* looks really nice to me. I would choose that one.

    I would select #4... Very nice. Back when I was a kid with a paper route, got a couple of these in payment. Cheers, RickO

    I've owned several and looked at scores... but I don't think I've ever seen one with PL fields. #4 for me just because of the novelty.

    These are actually common PL in the scheme of things. While the majority of them aren't, maybe 5-10% come flashy to fully PL. The 92 was in a DMPL SEGS holder and the 93 is very close to PL too. The toners sit in a double holder that predates PCGS doing PL

    1 is tops to me, then #4. Nice to have a choice. Peace Roy

    I like #1 the best! But they’re all nice!
    Crypto…that’s a great looking pair!

    I’m looking for a 92 to match this one.

  • marcmoishmarcmoish Posts: 6,805 ✭✭✭✭✭

    1 for me, for sure. Cool!

    1, that reverse is especially nice.

  • U1chicagoU1chicago Posts: 6,699 ✭✭✭✭✭

    For those wondering, the second one is my favorite (AU 58 star). It has the most appealing color to my eye; the other two toners are very close though. The PL one is up there too because it took a while to find the right example (I'm not exclusively a toner person either-I like some blast white, especially when it's a PL coin).
