1976 mint set Ike's are of type II; they have much narrower lettering on the reverse. Usually considered another variety for a complete set.

Correct, 1975 mint sets have the Variety 1 reverse, while the 1976 sets will have the Variety 2. Dansco albums, and I am sure Whitman as well, have holes for both varieties.

I'm very pleased with my latest Ike haul. Lots of color in this lot, all of which are 1971-S.

That's funny, SSK. Have we been making each other pay more for Ikes? LOL. I bid on several Ike lots by KC, but I only scored this one. However, I got the best deal, so I'm happy.

I'm not sure if this picture has been posted in this thread yet. I got it from Domain555. Can you imagine how many: Peg legs, 1972 Type 2, Silver Ikes, Proof Ikes, FEV Ikes, Morgan's, and Peace dollars are hiding in these bags! If we had access to this room I'm pretty sure Scrooge McDuck would even be a little jealous! Enjoy the pic.

@Darth: WOW!jimcoachdon said: Quote: Do collectors make a distinction between the coins in a 1975 Mint set, and those from a 1976 mint set? I guess I will put 1975 on the 2x2 for now, was just curious what others do. Here is what I did...  Daniel Carr overstrike onto a normal Ike. I know its a fantasy coin - but as I kid I dreamed I found one. So my dream is in hand now.
