    well, it does have a date and mm, and i have seen worse slabbed, in reality it is a 1.00 coin, the slabbers make 35-100 to put their opinion on it, it is win win, then the low ballers pay high baller prices, i saw a kennedy in poor-1 go for 1200 or more recently

    Impossible. There is no way that is circulation wear. Ikes do not circulate and were not minted for circulation.

    i think the same of the kennedy's and any other poor-1 modern coin, but they are slabbin em, and prices are astronomical for worthless coins, but people want to have sets of them, registry points man, spend it all!!!! lol still better than non fungible goods, give me the fungible ones, man!!

    Given the rounded edges and less wear in the middle, I'd bet that coin spent a few days in a rock polishing drum.

    They absolutely were intended for circulation. We all know they were not used in commerce, other than in slot machines but the goal was for daily use.

    I can see the mm but I don’t see any signs of a date.

    Ugg, no way would I bid on that Ike dollar. Show-n-tell only, poor thing. "I Like Ike."

    With everyone so worked up about "Artificial Toning" and "Questionable Color", why isn't anyone talking about "artificial" or "questionable" wear?

    No way that wear came from "natural circulation".

    I see a hint of it. Doesn't matter for lowball slabbing, though -- think of all the dateless 1916 quarters.

    It likely was someone's pocket piece.

    They do and the TPGS will details a coin for that. The reason no one talks about it is low ball collectors get mocked on forums so the majority just stopped talking about it period. Just look at this threads comments, you have everything from it being a shill bid to this wasnt meant for circulation when it was.

    That said I would want that in a slab to really be interested

    My mistake. 1973 only was NIFC.
