<p>[QUOTE="TexAg, post: 2780305, member: 86167"]My teller called to tell me a customer had brought in $529 worth of Ike Dollars loose in a bag and asked if I would be interested in them. I quizzed her about the customer thinking he's probably a collector and has already picked them over for nice specimens, proofs, varieties, etc. He told her he had been "throwing them in his bag as he got them". Anyway, I took the gamble and bought the whole lot and will start going through them tonight. I did a little research into the different varieties and found this article on thespruce.com to help as I go through them:</p><p><a href="https://www.thespruce.com/eisenhower-dollar-varieties-768205" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.thespruce.com/eisenhower-dollar-varieties-768205" rel="nofollow">https://www.thespruce.com/eisenhower-dollar-varieties-768205</a></p><p>I plan to keep any proofs, rare varieties, and hole fillers for my folder. Are the other "run of the mill" circulated Ikes worth more than face value and should I keep them all? I don't really want to hoard that many if they are worth a buck each. I already have about 150 circulated Ikes, none of them proofs. Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
