I just got this NGC MS 64 1971 D Friendly Ike. There is something going on at 10 o'clock just off the surface of the earth on the reverse. The mark looks to be incuse. Any thoughts? If you click on the images they will enlarge. Thanks, Ed

Oh, I'll be darn, in that case it is - neat find! I never collected Ikes (sorry jbuck) so don't know much about the series.

You are welcome. There is also discussion of a golfer being near the base of the eagle. See this thread and scroll down on the second page. Almost at the bottom there are some pretty convincing pics there.

I know when I first heard of this from CCF, I checked out one of my proof Ikes and, sure enough, the image is there.

I thought I'd never be interested in Ikes, but I was wrong

See! See!

It is especially easy when you realize how affordable they are (relative to other series).
