Check every slabbed 71-D you come in contact with. You CAN get very lucky. Don't rule out NGC slabs or for that matter, any other slabs. If push comes to shove, PM me your address. I can hook you up for cheap as I think I've got some nice one's laying around here somewhere. The 1971? MS65 is easily obtainable but if you buy rolls, some 64's could very well pop out.

An Eisenhower collection is much much more than just 32-35 coins in some Dansco on a Book Shelf. An Eisenhower Collection is a LOT of different coins. A lot of Duplicates. A lot of Folkers. A LOT of Slabs, a couple of boxes of 2x2's and a LOT of Rolls acquired over the years. Experience the collection.[/QUOTE]
