Post an Ike

Won this guy at auction the other day for just over melt price in the mint packaging. Can't wait to get the coin in hand. Wish I had gotten some better pics from the seller, but you can't go wrong with melt. I've been resizing the pic and trying to figure out if it is going to be an SPL or not. Guess i'll just have to wait and see.

looks clean for a 71, nice pick up especially at spot.

 

The best my camera will do for me.

 

The Ike i won off eBay for $13 has finally arrived today, the sellers pics were not the best so i could only guess what condition it was in or how the toning would actually look in hand. The coin is actually a good coin and im pleased but since i dont take photos of toners very well you will have to bear with the photo. I didnt bother with the reverse because the cello was reflecting hard and i just couldnt find the right lighting to make it go away.

 

Sweeeeeeeetness!

 

Whoa - cool!

 

here's one from the last group of Ikes I bought, 1971 P that has some interesting toning just beginning

 

Very nice John

This arrived in the mail yesterday while the "ike vs. presidents" was ongoing...

 

1973-P raw

 

got this pair for my ongoing S mint mark collection... the uncirculated silver and the proof silver, each from the 3 coin mint sets

 

I used to own one of those. It's an odd design. I never quite decided whether I liked it or not. I think I liked it because it was part of my collection, but I didn't shed any tears at selling it either.

 

These came in today's mail

 

Very, very nice, Paul! I like those bicentennials as well.
If all that isn't obvious from my current avatar
Nice mail delivery!

Came across this in a roll of circulated Ikes I had set aside a few years back. I was thinking of maybe starting a set and went through the roll to see what I had. Surprise! I'm guessing MS at least. Eagle's legs might show a slight rub, hard for me to tell. Does anyone else agree or differ?

 

I think it's a very nice talon head Ike! Congrats.
