I really don't like either, so my only other option was Detecto. I am not a fan of terminal state toning.

 

D. Neither and Detecto's opinion won't sway me one way or another.

 

Those look like scans to me, which usually do a poor job of showing luster/color. If that's the actual color of the toning, both coins are very close to the terminal state, but I think they look a little different in hand. B appears to have a more "rainbow" progression so I'd probably go with that one. From those pics alone though I really wouldn't buy either.

 

Teledrade doesn't do a great job imaging their coins. Or is it up to the sellers? At any rate, you're right - buying toners from pics like that is too much of a gamble.

 

I select option C.

 

Asking for another "prove my knowledge" post? j/k

Poor, poor Timmy....

No.

Neither.

 

I'm with Raider on this one, they might not be as bad as they look from the images. However my choice would be coin A because the predominant color on that coin appears to take on a blueish hue. While I'd normally prefer the more vivid rainbows on the obverse of coin B, it's reverse looks ashy and might be terminal....to my eyes.

 

Tough call on these 2 coins. I chose C.

 

I'd select "D" if there was one.

Yeah, I'd probably pass on both if I was paying more than melt. I kinda like the orange on B though the reverse is shot. I guess if I had to choose I'd pick B.

 

I'll post what they realized at the end of the day. It's already gotten too rich for my blood.

 

What? People are paying premiums for that crap?

 

No, not yet. But the opening bids were 250 and 500 respectively, which is already beyond my budget. If I had that kind of money to throw at coins, I'd buy yours.

 

Neither

 

Opening bid will probably be over the value most likely. Been really hard to find value buys on that site lately.

Missed your post of the bids before but looks par for the course.

 

I don't like either coin and there was no acceptable option in your poll.

 

Sorry, it's my first poll.

Next time I'll add D. Better ask Tom!

 

Are you telling me that those coins are graded MS67?

 

No, 66. I know, I know. We'll see if anyone bids.
