    So...as I'm walking out the door of this coin show today I see a bowl of Ikes for 3 bucks each. I looked though all of them, about 100 ikes, looking for clashes or peglegs and didn't seem to find any. But I did pluck these 6 out of the pile, which I think are fairly nice business strikes.

    But perhaps folks can help me identify the types of each of these coins:

    First Up is a 1971 in very decent shape and which, despite the photo, is not orange in white light.

    Type 1, 2 or 3?

    There are only Type 1 1971s, so not too sure about that question.

    Your 1972 is a Type 1 as well.

    For more info, here's a decent site:

    You keep track closer than I do. Are you going to throw a contest when Doug hits 20,000 posts?
