Ike Mint Error

Not a blood hound. I just jeyed in the numbers and the coins were there.

Couple that with the fact that James Sego (JMS Coins) would definitely know whether or not an IKE Dollar was a counterfeit.

I don't pretend to understand why they may have not been there but perhaps James got it straightened out. He is, after all, a PCGS Authorized Dealer.

Well, I won't go that far to say we all were wrong and Pcgs had them in their data-base the other night ...

 

I'm still under great stress, from Tom passing ....

Here's a tricky Ike :

1972 S 40% Obverse
IDDDO-27 New IDDDR-WH- IDDP-25

Cross Reference:

Attributed by: IDDD Thomas Kalantzis.

Class: Obverse Class II Doubling and tripling on IGWT. Quintupled 2 in date. TDO seems to be from a Master, however.

Submitted by: Steve Palladino.

Obverse Description:NewClass II Tripling seen on most letters of IGWT. The dies spread looks wide however because of the stage a die state it is actually tripled. The 2 in date shows signs of quintupling. Doubling on 197 in date. CW tripling seen on LIBERTY. CW and CCW on the E of LIBERTY. Also shows a secondary movement on the E of LIBERTY. The 2 in date has multiple split serifs. Interesting the differences on this die compared to the FS 101 is seen on the E of LIBERTY at 11 o'clock and the 2 in date at 5 o'clock.

Reverse Description: CCW spread seen on one dollar - right side AR. This die is in a lazy die state due to die wear.

Marker: Obverse in EMDS stage B. Die scratch lower 9 in date, a small die gouge seen on the left upper left inside of the upper loop. Die crack above and to the right of the E of we, and close to neck. Small eye scratch in the form of an X (See pictures below) Obverse MDS. The X marker in the eye area disappears in stage C MDS.

Date Recorded: 11/12/2012

POPULATION: 2.

Comments: The 2 in date is hubbed into the die, and is quintupled at the bottom of the loop on the left side. So far to date that loop on the 2 is seen with no doubling to quadrupling. The IDDD-027 has the 2 quintupled. The E of LIBERTY shows a CW and CCW spread. A very interesting die. UN-common. More work needs to be done on this die.

For both Anacs 4942362 and PCGS 18232250. Obverse stage B in EMDS, a second coin, raw, in stage C in MDS abraded.

Tripled class II IGWT W/CW tripling on LIBERTY, to date is different then other tripled dies recorded. The die was abraded.
