[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2739473, member: 69760"]Based on [I]only[/I] the sellers' photos and if you had to choose, which raw 1937-P Buffalo nickel would you buy if they're both at the same price? Which is the better coin? To some degree it's a gamble; but to make it simpler, let's say they're both problem-free. This is another way of asking, GTG w/ a further emphasis on both eye appeal and micro-grading (i.e. even at the same grade, one coin is at a slightly better condition). Feel free to grade them, too! Many buyers face these questions when viewing eBay listings. Buyers could simply ask the seller for more pics, but even then, the photos may still be too difficult to make out any additional details. So, I want to see which of the two most people on this forum will choose. Or maybe it'll be a toss up! By the way, I bought one of them... which did I choose? Thanks in advance! [B]#1 [/B] If you take the reddish-orange hue away from #1, will it be frosty and an EDS with far less die wear than #2? [ATTACH=full]625057[/ATTACH] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [B]#2 [/B] The area where the hair is tied down appears to be relatively more worn than in #1.
