<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1057210, member: 19065"]I like Ikes a lot! I actively collect higher grade MS/PR 40% "S" silver Ikes. I hope you score big with a whole bag of 40% coins. As a collector, that guy may well have known why he hung onto them if silver -or- like stated earlier he got them when the series was ending. Honestly speaking, I am skeptical of what you will find with this bag based on the time frame you were given. I will place a guess here now and wait to see what you find and report back to us. Do post pics if you find anything awesome in that bag. Good luck!</p><p><br /></p><p>My guess is that you find a $1000 Mint sealed bag of regular business strike Ikes. Most likely you will find ALL 1977-D or ALL '78-D cu-ni Ike dollars. There are more of those two date/mm out there than the '78-P Ikes and there were even fewer '77-P minted. Of course the "S" mm coins were even more limited, for mint/proof sets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
