@ Creassendo Quote: That'd be great to get them for face value! Cheapest I could ever find is buying in bulk for around 15% over face value. I actually found quite a few in coinstar machines from jams. Apparently people dump them but the machine only takes them and they spin around on the coin disc. They never actually get counted and sit there until someone empties the machine. Point well taken fellow CCFer Not counting the Diesel, The CHOCOLATE cost per IKE is (APPROX) 4.4 cents over FACE. Te He. BTW most of the 452 IKEs from her were AU (or) UNCH. Even WHEN I was getting FEDERAL RESERVE $1,000 BAGS for FACE at my BoA they were in a lesser general condition. I am sticking with my CU COIN BUDDY for all that it is worth. If I did the math correctly I am getting 2.008 IKEs per day.   YUM YUM YUMMY

@ Creassendo And other points on my 452 IKEs from her. Decisively better over all condition, With much heavier population with (P) mints, with 1974 ~`~` 1977 ~`~` 1978 dates.and fair amounts of type (1) 1976   A few PEGLEGs  If (when) I get the next call, hoping my total IKEs goes over 500 from her. I guess the real best issue is I only just sit back for her to call.

All good points. Though what if you could go through all the Ikes at the local Federal Reserve depots? And then keep what you want and deposit back what you don't want? Have to imagine there'd be some good quality still floating out there.

Cressendo I have more to say about the possibilities of other FED RES BANK bags out there (LATER)

UP-DATE
Just sent an Email to my Credit Union friend, telling her I hope to see her soon with fresh chocolate
Like to keep my thoughts in front of her. Can't hurt.
Feel like she will check the other 7-8 branches to watch for my IKEs. (TODAY)

Quote: You guys just looking for silver or numismatic value of clad too? For my (7) seven FED RES MINT BAGS there was a lot more numismatic value of clad than the AG. I still have all the SILVER, and the bulk of the numismatic stuff. From my all so poor memory I have sold maybe 15-20 IKES for (APPROX) $200+ ~`~`~` give or take. Not too bad as I paid only FACE And same FACE for my CREDIT UNION IKEs.

Will contact my CREDIT UNION manager today.
Most likely via Email. She will be BUSY at this time of the year.
There is hope some IKEs will be cashed in for holiday cash.
My friend can-will look into all her other 7 branches.
It's been a LONG time ago that I did get some IKEs
To date it is 452 MIGHTY IKEs
(ALL) Better condition in general
More (P) mints ~`~`~` one SILVER (S) mint ~`~`~` PEG LEG if I remember correctly

@Domain555,
I've now gone through 7 bags of Ikes. My Bank Lady called me yesterday and said she tried to order more but they were out. Hopefully She will still be able to order them. Have you had any luck with ordering $1000 bags lately?

Click No good for me these last many months on $1,000 FEDERAL RESERVE BANK EISENHOWER BAGs. (from BoA)I was never able to get BAGs, from my C.U. Only some loose IKEs. 452 coin from memory. But nice coins in general. Are you dumping any of your 7,000. Please ignore the question if best not to say. PM me if you want to ~`~`~` for a CCF sale. I like the (P) mint. Particularly 1972 1974 1976 1977 1978. AU or better condition. Or PM me for my personal thoughts on HOW to (maybe) get a bank to order them for you.
