Dearborn, imagine if, by some bizarre circumstance, you happened to be J-Buck's Secret Santa this year... Hmm, I wonder if that could be , umm, arranged...  Quote:

Dearborn, I neglected to say how funny that J-Ike is. One of the most humorous things I've ever seen here on the Forum. I can only imagine your cackling while constructing this... um..... tribute?

 This is impressive. I am humbled.  Quote:
Yep, I made it to look just like his then gilded it with REAL 24-carat gold leaf. This ain't a painted item..  Quote:

This is just a tribute!
Couldn't create the greatest Ike in the world, yeah - no!
This is a tribute! |

Thanks Jbuck, (I do plan on trying to re-do the obverse though.) I think I rushed the application a bit and didn't let the size cure enough and probably had applied it too heavy.  |

This has got to be the funniest post I've seen yet! Thanks all...I needed this laugh today and suffered through the pain of doing so. JBuck needs this coin and then watch him grade it! |

Oh, this is certainly a 'chuckle' worthy event here, maybe even a few 'guffaws' are in order too. |

OK, while it is imposible with my set up to do this perfectly on an imperfect Ike - this is the best I can do:  a little bit better. |
