So, you went ahead and ordered one, right?


Yep, and that set of clad proofs too! Plus I have today to look around on ebay today while wasting my time watching the Browns/GB game.
I feel like I just had a run in with the Borg -

Bahaha...glad I finally found some people interested in Ike's! I've been hoarding a bunch since I hit up a bank that told me they had gotten a bunch in from a local a few years ago. I pulled out my favorite 15 or so and hope to sell the others...think I started with 70 of them. Could use the spendable kind of money at this point, so keeping all of them is not in the cards. Thoughts?

I'm too wet behind the ears to give you any advice on them! Wait for jbuck to chime in.

It really depends on what you have.

Just a tease. Stopped at the LCS again today just to look through the junk bins and ended up with this Ike for 5$.
Type 2 D in mint cello. Most of the marks are from the lighting and on the cello itself. Wish that darn album would hurry up and get here!

For that leads to the darkside and the collecting of SBA's

Actually, to be honest, I have an SBA set as well. Simple date-mint with proofs, 15 coins. No wide/narrow/near/far/date/rim stuff. no mint mark varieties.
