If you are a dealer that depends on the Grey Sheet and you read that “X” coin bid is only $6.00 and ask is $6.75 there is no incentive for you to have that coin taking up valuable real estate in your cases at a shop and especially at a show. Collectors will definitely not sell them to you for “bid” because they know that a collector will pay multiples of bid In higher grades.</p><p>&nbsp; <a href="http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/pricesms/ikedlr/prices61.shtml" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/pricesms/ikedlr/prices61.shtml" rel="nofollow">http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/pricesms/ikedlr/prices61.shtml</a></p><p>&nbsp; <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/prices/PriceGuideDetail.aspx?MS=1&amp;PR=1&amp;SP=1&amp;c=31&amp;title=Ike+Dollar" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/prices/PriceGuideDetail.aspx?MS=1&amp;PR=1&amp;SP=1&amp;c=31&amp;title=Ike+Dollar" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/prices/PriceGuideDetail.aspx?MS=1&amp;PR=1&amp;SP=1&amp;c=31&amp;title=Ike+Dollar</a></p><p>&nbsp; New varieties in this series are being discovered at an incredible rate. And the fact that some of the larger third party graders just flat refuse to recognize some of the Major design varieties and I do mean MAJOR. Example: 1971–D RDV-006 (Friendly Eagle Variety) A completely unique reverse design, which encompasses major design elements of the entire&nbsp; coin in one year and one Mint Mark and has been known about for years. Is refused to be designated by some MAJOR third party Graders. Those who collect them know which graders of which I speak. Yet within a month or so of its discovery the Wisconsin high and low leaf quarters were being designated by the same third party graders.</p><p>&nbsp; That is just one example of one variety many more have been discovered recently due to the fact that there is more people studying this series. Like the VAM’s of the Morgan series.</p><p>&nbsp; The Ike Group Web site <a href="http://www.ikegroup.org/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ikegroup.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ikegroup.org/</a> is ground zero for the study of the Eisenhower Dollar and all of its varieties. They are a great group of guys dedicated to and enjoying the ground breaking work being done. </p><p>&nbsp; STEWART</p><p>&nbsp; Any and all opinions are my own and subject to being only worth the screen space they occupy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
