    I love Ikes. Affordable, but great in the hand appeal with both size, weight and a great reverse design (IMHO). Congrats.

    Yeah I really like it. It came out of a mint set and I only paid $2.

    That is a GREAT IKE! And I collect them! That is a killer strike for a business strike Ike

    Can't beat the price you paid for that one....

    It's really nice with the luster and strike, but I don't think it would grade higher than a 63. That's fine with me because I got it so cheap!

    Did the islands show up? (Bahamas) I can't tell from your photo.

    I don't really collect these, but are you referring to the earth on the reverse? If so, I'll look at my proof and see how it compares.

    Exactly. If those little islands are distinguishable it makes the piece more desireable......:)
