Nobody is disputing that the second coin is better, but it still has marks. One on the bridge of the nose, one on the shoulder and a bunch more...
Do us a favor and post both of the Great Collections photos for each coin side by side so we can see an apples to apples comparison.
Because you are looking at two different types of photos. My photos are designed to show the actual appearance of the coin, including marks. The...
