<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1419092, member: 19463"]One of the problems I have is letting go of coins when I get an upgrade version. When I bid on my new coin I thought my old one was a different workshop but now I believe they are both TRS so I should be able to move the lesser one to the trade stock. It is never that simple. While the new coin is pretty it loses a lot of legend to a flat strike on the left side. The old one has all the letters with just a little clipping on the mintmark (still readable). The old one has more hair detail but rougher surfaces. I have no trouble preferring the smooth flat coin but you always hate to give up details even if gaining eye appeal. </p><p><br /></p><p>So which is it? Keep one or both? I know, I should find a perfect coin and get rid of them both. I'm probably too cheap to do that.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]172675.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]172676.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
