I dreamed of finding it inside a water-fountain Also, ike's are still being used as change, it's just that people who get them are saving them. Report this Post to the Staff

There was a hundred-year gap (including two world wars with resultant economic collapses), so the denomination was altered to keep up with inflation, but the design remained much the same. Coin#1: 5 francs, 1871-1878. 25 grams .900 fine silver. Circulated. Coin#2: 50 francs, 1974-1980. 30 grams .900 fine silver. NCLT but issued at face value. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 06/03/2013 10:58 pm Thanks for the links, Sap. That is exactly the kind of example I was thinking about. Wow, a hundred-year gap between mintings of basically the same design. Now I wonder if that is a record for this sort of thing. ;-) Report this Post to the Staff

SaintRidley Pillar of the Community United States 592 Posts	Posted 06/05/2013 12:40 am To the original question, with US coins examples have been given, but there's something about the precise situation envisioned in the OP which does not match those examples. All of the examples were the mint resuming production of a current design, not producing a design that was used and has since been superseded by another (as the Ike dollar has been by the SBA and Native American dollars). Although, I would be quite pleased (and would buy) in 2021 and 2029 90% silver Ike and SBA 50th anniversary coins should they be produced. A good dream, and I definitely share it.

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10029 Posts	Posted 06/06/2013 12:58 pm I think your thread influenced me! Last night I dreamed I got my 2013 silver proof sets from the mint. I was so excited as I opened them. But then, when I got the initial box open, all of the plastic holders were empty except for one that had a 2013 S Silver Ike in it. Man was it beautiful! I wanted to mail the empty containers back for complete sets but was afraid they would keep the Ike and not send me a new one if I did.
