They won't come anywhere near the top in this poll, but I think if people were honest about it, and disregarded their natural bias towards rarity, then both Piedmont and Sweet Caporal would win out. They're the most common, but also the best looking.

EPDG is my favorite. I'm a little surprised it currently has only 2 votes. But Sovereign is my 2nd favorite & it has yet to get a vote.

Here's a link to see all of the backs

I like Carolina Brights the best. Love the border, the font used on "Carolina Brights" and the banner and wreath in the middle.

After clicking on the link and seeing them all side by side I concur. I actually prefer the red cross back but dont believe they're considered part of the set.

Those are my two favorites, I voted for Sovereign, but EPDG was a close second.

I think the Sweet Cap Fac. 649 Overprint is the sharpest SC.

Sweet Cap is a little busy for my taste. Piedmont is nice, but I like how CB, Cycle, Drum and a couple others feel more balanced to me.

Sorry to those who would go with Uzit or an unframed back, as I had limited options for the poll.
