Scropper CCF Sponsor United States 702 Posts	Posted 11/09/2014 5:44 pm Has mostly to do with the shape of the "T" in STATES. To my knowledge, all '77s and '78s are T2. Report this Post to the Staff
collectorofcoins Valued Member United States 80 Posts	Posted 11/09/2014 7:43 pm Type I Ikes were only in 1976, the Bicentennial Ikes. The letters on the reverse were wider than the Type II. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189673 Posts	Posted 11/10/2014 10:59 am 1972 has three varieties. 1976 has two varieties. As far as I know, 1978 only has one variety. I think the seller is mistaken.

PlumCrazy814 Pillar of the Community United States 896 Posts	Posted 11/11/2014 11:27 pm Thanks for the clarification. I saw this listing going for much more than what I thought it was worth. Very familiar with Type I and II on the '76's, thank you Collectorofcoins, and excellent pictures by the way. Scropper, thanks for the input - it verifies no premium or oddity. JBuck...I know your passion for Ikes and I appreciate the validation. I can't see what caused someone to spend over $10 on what looked like a mediocre 1978 proof set with the only ad spike being a "type 2" Ike. Report this Post to the Staff
