[QUOTE="kSigSteve, post: 7928756, member: 72008"]That brings back memories. I looked at the coins briefly and graded them as I always do. Scrolled down to the bottom of page 1 to post my response and couldn’t see the grades which were disclosed on page 2. I’m sure you were obviously joking with the Ed reply which I find hilarious. When comparing the two coins together side by side I felt coin 2 was superior. Coin 1 seemed to have much better luster but also had 2 very distracting marks. Initially I only saw the spot to the left of Monticello. Now that you made me take a second look there is also what appears to be verdigris or a carbon spot on I in UNITED. The jacket of Jefferson on coin 1 is severely marked up. While they may be planchet marks coin 2 area here is much cleaner. I am blown away by how much more detail resides in the actual building on coin 1 vs coin 2.[/QUOTE]
