When you get a new bag of Ike dollars do you count them?

As long as the bag is sealed, I just weigh them. Too much work to count.

Thoughts please.

You got a Mint Sewn Bag of IKE's?

I would count 'em and look for varieties and errors.

Pictures please.

I have never received a bag of Ike`s that was too much work to count. To me counting/sorting them is the best part.

No, only $1000 plastic bags. I do look for .999, 90%, 40% Silver, errors, and toned..

I dont know since I havent found anywhere to actually get ike bags for face.

Between how many Id have graded and how many kept and how many spent I would end up with a final count anyway though

WVUcoins,

I was referring to the exact one thousand "count."
Last bag I was lucky enough to get, was 2-3 oz., over weight.
The one before it was about 1-2 oz. under weight.
