Attempting to promote Eisenhower interest & collecting. After I open a bag, get the silver, look for errors, BU, 1976 type 2, etc. Then I like to get as much of the coins back into circulation. Reason being is to stir up interest in ikes. My coin collecting area is pretty much limited. When you get 1 ike back in the hands of people, you never know who you will draw into the Ike dollar collecting family. More people collecting modern day ikes is good for business. he-he.  |

Sounds like a good idea! I've always wanted to see people using Ikes!

This is the central thread where we track all Half and Dollar coins spending. I am on the case. I have to get rid of Ikes all the time, in order to afford another bag to search through |
