<p>[QUOTE=&quot;charlottedude, post: 2371035, member: 26010&quot;]Love the first one.&nbsp; Second one looks like it&#039;s seen a few days in a lab, or at least had a vigorous bath or two... not original nor appealing to my eye at all.&nbsp; Considering that NGC tends to &quot;reward&quot; coin enhancement within this realm (based on its view of market acceptability &amp; tending to give such coins a higher grade), I usually avoid the purchase of NGC-graded early &amp; branch mint gold unless I can see the coin in hand first, or if the image is compelling enough to give me the impression the photo is how the coin looks in hand. Based on the photos, I would say they both closely represent how the coins look in hand. I would take the weaker strike with original surfaces over a sharply struck example that&#039;s obviously been dipped out any day.</p><p><br /></p><p>&#039;dude[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
