[QUOTE="softmentor, post: 2057234, member: 10469"]I also have not been able to get bags of Iks at my bank. The last I was able to get was about 3 months ago. My last request came back as small dollars instead, none were available at my coin consolidator (the guys that pick them up and handle them for the banks by the pallet full. One teller told me there was a waiting list but that was not confirmed by the head of my branch or the head teller at another bank. It is very possible that there is just a lack of them in the supply chain. I think if they have them they will release them, but I don't have any real facts to support that, it is just speculation. On a personal collection note, I have 3 sets all au 58 or better (only 2 have the 1972 v2), along with a few extra of exceptional business strike and Bi-cent'l varieties. and of course you can always get them in mint sets and proof sets. I suppose there are also a fair number out of circulation for those folks who collect old slot machines and want some real coin for their old dollar machines. I know one fellow who has one and he has about $250 worth just for fun.[/QUOTE]
