<p>[QUOTE="COIN STASHER, post: 1213637, member: 773"]As most of us know, there were no 1975-dated Ikes minted, as both the 1975 and 1976 issues were dated "1776-1976" to commemorate the bicentennial. Daniel Carr overstruck some of the 40% silver Ikes with the 1975 date, and with a satin finish. I purchased one recently and it looks great. Did anyone else buy one of these, or other of Carr's mintages? I know some collectors don't buy such "fantasy" strikes, but I think all of Carr's work has been exceptional, and I have purchased others, including the 2009 Silver Proof ASE. <p style="text-align: center"><p style="text-align: center"></p> </p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
