This might be a hard one, but after I posted the coin I did I couldn't do anything else.   Post a coin with a date in the future! ...yes, I know I've done this one before, the rules are different this time. In this case, I'm asking about coins featuring dates that represent a time after the coin's issue date; the farther forward, the better. They don't have to be AD dates, but they should be read in their intended calendar; if there's an Islamic commemorative with an Islamic date ahead of the (Islamic) issue date, then that works, but no cheating like reading a Nepalese date as if it was AD. 1 point per year in the future, I guess. So this one (I think) would be 7 points (2007-2000). Putting such a common coin so far ahead would make this round too boring though! So: if you post a Virginia State Quarter, your points will be halved, and only count for 3.5 points. This means a different type with only 4 or 5 years of difference could still beat an exact match. |

Yeah, this might be difficult. At the moment, I have nothing.   |

The Variety 1 reverse for business strikes of the dual dated 1776-1976 cupronickel clad bicentennial Ike were indeed issued in 1975. Of the three bicentennial issues (Quarter, Half, and Dollar) only the Ike can be determined outside of the OGP (1975 uncirculated and proof mint sets) by its reverse.  |

For what it is worth, all the 40% silver bicentennial Ikes have the variety 1 reverse.
The Mint struck these coins from 1975 until June 1976. Since all OGP have a 1776-1976 date, there is no way to tell when any of the three coins were minted (including the Ike).
