I really like the top one.....to my inexperienced eye,, it looks much better that 1 pt over the other, is that where the CAC says the same thing? Even with out you saying it was CAC'd it appeared that way to me

Not a huge fan of #2 but #1 looks to have some nice frost

Ya, #2 is definitely an acquired taste, i happen to appreciate prints, .

[newprepper]

are those finger prints that affected the toning?

[jerseycat10]

Yup, while many see fingerprints as negative, I see them as attesting to the originality and character of the coin in question. That, and the coin without prints would be more expensive, .

While I can see some interest in wondering who might have handled the coin thruout history, what would you think if you found out that the prints belong to a mishandling coin dealer?

In all honesty, that wouldn't matter to me. I like that the coin has beautiful greens a nd oranges, and the prints only serve as contrasting devices to better let those colors stand out.

While I dont love the coin, the multiple prints do seem to build an interesting pattern on this one. Certainly looks much better than coins with 1 print on them. I have a couple with 1 single partial print and its always so distracting.
