<p>[QUOTE="ronterry, post: 1401536, member: 28569"]It's to bad they didn't put Ike on paper! However he does pretty good on a coin. My goodness when I was a kid my mother would give me an Ike that would fill my palm and I could buy junk food all day! By 1980 they became very sporadic in circulation, but dem Kennedy's were everywhere. By the late 80's the Kennedy's became oddballs, and people started hording them.</p><p>I do have about two hundred Ike's around here in various forms, slabed - unslabed - Silver - Clad - and good Old Denver die clashes... FYI: Over at the Denver Mint, they have a nice large framed photo of an Ike coin along the tour, along with a bunch of other stuff that will make you droll. The Freaking Mint Cops actually had to come grab me cause I lagged away from the tour LOL... He was cool though, and we talked about Tommy Guns on the long way back to the tour. Oh and they are still in use. Note to self, don't try to rob the Mint unless you can handle a wall of 45 caliber lead. I didn't get any answers on weather they had 10mm version of the Thompson which do exist with the FEDs. </p><p>Yea Yea I digress...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
