Ike&#039;s are the first big dollars I ever collected since I was a teenager when they were issued, and you could simply get them at a bank, and occasionally in change.

Almost all of the raw ones I&#039;ve ever seen at B&amp;M&#039;s and shows are plagued with hairlines and dull luster.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
