[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 26693658, member: 36248"]I have a personal pet-peeve with coins, and its about the rims. I absolutely can't stand when there is a rim hit that cuts into perfect circle of a coins frame AKA the rim. I also have a problem noticing such damage AFTER I have purchased a coin. It's this really bizarre blind spot I have. I intentionally scan around the rim of every coin I am considering, but if there is something else I really like about a coin, for instance the blue toning on the BN coin above, well, somehow, I miss the rim hit that later will drive my nutty. I can't explain it. I try really had not to buy coins that have a feature that will later bother me, but yet, here we are. Until I have the coin in hand, I wont make a final judgement. I mean, the massive TrueViews do exaggerate the size of flaws, so maybe this hit wont be so bad. All this is to say, yeah, I'm leaning in the direction of the Red coin, even though I really love the overall look of the brown coin.[/QUOTE]
