Eisenhower Glory! Post Your Ike Circulation And CRH Finds!

... of the 15 coins one was a FINNING error IKE

____________________________________

Finning

PART VI. Striking Errors:

Abnormally Strong Strike:

Finning

Definition: A fin is a thin flange that extends vertically from the rim/edge junction of a coin struck within the collar. It is caused by excessive striking pressure or a localized increase in striking pressure caused by slight die tilt. The extra pressure causes coin metal to squeeze into the narrow gap between die neck and collar. Fins can develop on either face or both faces simultaneously. A fin may encircle a coin or may be restricted to one pole. The latter is the kind typically produced by die tilt.

jbuck,

There was a time when I was able to sell "error" IKEs

.... from memory peggers, off center, toned, etc., but no FINNING errors.

.... best ever IKE sale was this year. A lowball.

A RAW coin. On best offer, caught a $150.00 offer. Net was $120-ish after FEEs.

Hello all! Just caught up on the latest posts. We need some pictures of all these great finds! I've got the bug again. I'm going to go find a bank that can order me Ike's again (Hopefully). Anyone find a connection lately. Hoping to find some $1000 bags again!

2 banks today yielded 21 Ikes. Nothing UNC or BU. I'll check for varieties later.

HH all!

I have never found an Ike in circulation. Assuming you exclude picking up dozens from my local credit union, than none.

Times ten

some of the best times, moments, minuets, hours, & days, of my little life.

Sure miss the 1,000 FED RES BANK BAGS

Only regret was being in the $100,000 thread about getting them back in circulation

Excellent!

Yes they are.
