flyank Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 09/26/2019 11:02 am I came across these in a bank bag of UNC Ikes. Appears to show some progression of possible Struck Through Grease or other debris? Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 09/26/2019 12:18 pm It looks like they are greasers and nice ones. But We need a full picture of both front and back and if possible can you adjust the lighting to rid that purplish color? Edited by Chase007 09/26/2019 12:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 09/26/2019 3:35 pm Where did you get a bag of Uncirculated Ike's? They probably are Struck Through Grease, and fortunately for you, they are Bi-cents which might actually make them sellable. Nice coins, but like others have said the obverse is important too, any error from Philly is much more rare. Report this Post to the Staff

flyank Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 09/27/2019 12:45 pm As requested....here are the Obverse and Reverse. Sorry...this is the best I can do with my limited photo capability. I've also taken photos of the rim/edge proximal to the areas in question. This bag I've had for years (from the 1980s I think)....got it as a sealed bank bag of $1000 Ikes.

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 09/27/2019 1:34 pm These are Struck Through Grease examples and they carry a nice premium above face value. do not handle then without gloves,put them in 2x2. share the additional finds in your bag, good luck.

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 09/27/2019 3:51 pm Love them. They are both 1976 p type 2, a slabbed ms67 is worth 2700 or so without the error. It is the only Philadelphia Ike that has a higher mintage than Denver, however as I understand it Philly errors rarer, maybe it's mostly due to the lower numbers, or maybe Denver was just darker, either way you have two very nice coins. I too would like to see any other finds Report this Post to the Staff

flyank Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 10:44 am IF I were to try and sell these...would it be better to be sold as the pair? I wonder if one of the grading services would put them in a holder (both together in one holder)to show the progression? I guess ebay would be a good place but I'm not sure how to value them or if that would be the right market to expose them to. Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 12:11 pm sell individually. not worth the expense to slab them.Ebay is a good place to sell them.they may bring $20-$35 a piece. Report this Post to the Staff
Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 1:38 pm There is currently only one other listed on ebay but it's in a slab. I would probably keep them myself, but if you were inclined to sell them I would probably list them for 50$ each. Unless you think they look like they are above ms67., But those both look like they might be around a 64 Report this Post to the Staff

flyank Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 09/29/2019 1:55 pm You asked to see any additional finds in the bag and here is what I found in the bag last night. This one appears to have the least amount of grease left during the Struck Thru. Now there are 3 in sequence! Report this Post to the Staff
