ccobb Valued Member United States 485 Posts	Posted 05/10/2019 10:09 pm Sorry for the poor quality photos , I picked up this complete Eisenhower Dansco set last weekend for $120 (impulse buy)! They all look very nice except the 77D but I have one to replace it with. Was this a good buy? Report this Post to the Staff

Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 05/11/2019 12:14 pm It was a good deal for $120. You got the entire set PLUS the Dansco album. Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 05/11/2019 12:29 pm A dramatic example of a 1971-D Ike struck on a proof planchet. In direct light, the coin presents as an even, stark white GEM, and the bust appears more glossy than the fields. With diffused light, the semi reverse proof-like look comes out. I've had this coin for a bit, but just got it under the Canon last week. Seller snap-shot photos also provided for an in-hand look. It's an odd but gorgeous duck. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 76558 Posts	Posted 05/17/2019 12:35 am HappyHippo, is that an error coin? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
HappyHippo Valued Member United States 266 Posts	Posted 05/17/2019 01:11 am No, it is what Dan Carr is making at Moonlight Mint with Eisenhower 40% Silver dollars now. I wish I could have got the 1970 and 1975 Eisenhower overstrikes he made. I think they are cool albeit fantasy coins. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10054 Posts	Posted 05/17/2019 1:36 pm @Happy - great looking piece. One of the best things I ever did was get the 70 and 75 Ikes when he made them. So hard to find nowadays. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
