    The Vault Manager at one of my usual banks set aside ten rolls of Ikes for me that an older gentleman cashed in about a week ago. These were all very old looking rolls and I was intrigued by the fact that some had very old dates stamped on them:

    After checking the contents I found that someone had sorted these coins by date in different rolls, and almost all of them are UNCIRCULATED!! Probably they've been sitting in these rolls for about 40+ years! One roll was entirely 1976-D Type One's:

    And in a roll of 1971-D's I found 6 of these which I believe are the Friendly Eagle Variety. Any Ike experts please feel free to confirm or correct me on this:

    The only difference I'm aware of is the Type I with two lines above the eye and the Type II & III without the lines.

    According to Cherrypickers' Guide the "Friendly Eagle" variety has six? features different from the common 1971-D reverse, five of which are described. 99% sure these are the FEV's. No mention of a Type I, II, or III; you maybe are referring to the 1972 Ike (T I, II & III reverse best identified by the island configuration on the Earth above eagle)?

    Okay! To be honest, I didn't even look at the CPG. I just did a "quick flip" to the listing in the Wexler/Crawford/Flynn book, "Authoritative Reference on Eisenhower Dollars". It just mentions the T-I & T-II. My mistake about mentioning a T-III.
